Guibert
It's a servant's duty to know everything
How else could they help out?
How else could they help out?

Blanche
I would never stoop to look through keyholes, no
Never would I try
Never, never, not I
I am not the type to spy through keyholes, no
Others may try, not I
Others may try, not I
Oh but, oh but, if I could only see
One little glimpse from her tree
Oh but, oh but, if I could only catch
One little look at that match

Guibert
I would never listen close to keyholes, no
Never would I try
I cross my heart, not I
I would never put my ear to keyholes, no
Even if it's fun
No, that's just not done
Oh but, oh but, if I could only hear
One little whisper so clear
Blanche
Oh but, oh but, what I would not face
If I could be in her place

Guibert
So, it's a servant's duty to know everything
How else can I help out
Blanche
Else, there would be some doubt
Guibert
And it's a servant's duty to learn his master's trade
Much better will he serve
Blache
Hope I'll keep my nerve

Both
Oh but, oh but, maybe she's too afraid
Perhaps we should go to her aid
Guibert
Yes, we must find out before it gets too late
Blanche
Now's the time can't wait
Both
Now's the time can't wait
It's a servant's duty to know everything
Oh yes
How else could I help out
Now, there is no doubt
Oh yes, oh yes, oh
