Lyrics

And what costume shall the poor girl wear

Reflecting on the choice of attire for a less privileged girl

To all tomorrow's parties?

Pondering the appearance at future social events

A hand-me-down dress from who-knows-where

Considering a second-hand dress of unknown origin

To all tomorrow's parties?

Questioning the appropriateness for upcoming gatherings

And where will she go and what shall she do

Wondering about the girl's destination and actions

When midnight comes around?

Contemplating the girl's demeanor when the clock strikes midnight

She'll turn once more to Sunday's clown

Anticipating the girl's return to a familiar role as an entertainer

And cry behind the door

Describing her emotional state, hiding tears behind a closed door


And what costume shall the poor girl wear

Repeating the inquiry about the girl's attire for future events

To all tomorrow's parties?

Reiterating the concern about the appropriateness of clothing

Why silks and linens of yesterday's gowns

Questioning the choice of luxurious fabrics from the past

To all tomorrow's parties?

Addressing the persistence of outdated garments at social functions

And what will she do with yesterday's rags

Considering the fate of clothing from the previous day when a new week begins

When Monday comes around?

Speculating on the girl's reaction to the challenges of a new week

She'll turn once more to Sunday's clown

Envisioning the girl resuming her role as an entertainer on Sundays

And cry behind the door

Repeating the theme of hidden sorrow behind closed doors


And what costume shall the poor girl wear

Posing the same question about the girl's clothing for upcoming events

To all tomorrow's parties?

Reiterating the concern for appropriate attire at future gatherings

For Thursday's child is Sunday's clown

Linking the girl to the persona of Sunday's clown, suggesting a recurring role

For whom none will go mourning

Indicating that nobody will mourn or grieve for the girl

A blackened shroud

Describing a somber symbol, a blackened shroud

A hand-me-down gown Of rags and silks

Detailing the girl's attire, a mix of worn-out garments and finer fabrics

A costume

Emphasizing the overall attire as a costume for a specific role

Fit for one who sits and cries

Depicting the intended fit for someone who experiences sadness and tears

For all tomorrow's parties

Summarizing the overall theme of preparing for future social events with a touch of melancholy
