No. 4: Trio (Yum-Yum, Nanki-Poo & Ko-Ko)
"Here's a how-de-do!"
| Yum-Yum. |
Here's a how-de-do!
If I marry you,
When your time has come to perish,
Then the maiden whom you cherish
Must be slaughtered, too!
Here's a how-de-do!
Here's a how-de-do! |
| Nanki-Poo. |
Here's a pretty mess!
In a month, or less,
I must die without a wedding!
Let the bitter tears I'm shedding
Witness my distress,
Here's a pretty mess!
Here's a pretty mess! |

Nanki-Poo (Philip Potter), Yum-Yum (Valerie Masterson) & Ko-Ko (John Reed), 1966

| Ko-Ko. |
Here's a state of things
To her life she clings!
Matrimonial devotion
Doesn't seem to suit her notion--
Burial it brings!
Here's a state of things!
Here's a state of things! |
| Yum-Yum & Nanki-Poo. |
Ko-Ko. |
With a passion that's intense
I worship and adore,
But the laws of common sense
We oughtn't to ignore.
If what he says is true,
'Tis death to marry you!
Here's a pretty state of things!
Here's a pretty how-de-do!
Here's a pretty state of things!
A pretty state of things! |
With a passion that's intense
You worship and adore,
But the laws of common sense
You oughtn't to ignore.
If what I say is true,
'Tis death to marry you!
Here's a pretty state of things!
Here's a pretty how-de-do!
Here's a pretty state of things!
A pretty state of things! |
| Yum-Yum. |
Here's a how-de- |
do! |
|
| Nanki-Poo. |
|
Here's a how-de- |
do! |
| Ko-Ko. |
|
|
Here's a how-de-do! |
| Yum-Yum & Nanki-Poo. |
Ko-Ko. |
For if what he says is true,
I cannot, cannot marry you,
Here's a pretty, pretty state of things!
Here's a pretty how-de-do! |
For if what he says is true,
He cannot, cannot marry you,
Here's a pretty, pretty state of things!
Here's a pretty how-de-do! |
Exit Yum-Yum.
