You're Not Ready to Journey With Me
for mezzo and piano
Amy Scurria
Text by Zane Corriher
Well I could slink on down to Italy,
Or sail the canals of Venice easily.
Then I'd prowl on over to Sicily,
Or sneak a drink from the fount of Trevi.
Alice, oh, Alice confused and lost
You need to see the Queen.
Prima devi imparare chi sei tu.
You're not ready to journey with me.
Oh, I may saunter to beautiful Paris
Where the Moulin Rouge dancers shout: oui, oui, merci!
Climb the Eiffel Tower and grin with glee.
See Tuileries, nap in the shrubbery.
Alice, confused and lost
You need to see the Queen.
D'abord tu dois apprendre qui tu es.
You're not ready to journey with me.
I might romp across the ocean to Peru.
