[WIDOW CORNEY (spoken)]
You`re a cruel man.
And a hardhearted man besides.
[MR. BUMBLE (spoken)]
Hardhearted, Mrs. Corney? Hard?
Are you hardhearted, Mrs. Corney?
[WIDOW CORNEY (spoken)]
Dear me! What a curious question coming
from a single man.
What can you want to know
for, Mr. Bumble? Mr. Bumble, I shall scream!
[MR. BUMBLE]
No you wouldn`t, heigh ho.
If I wanted something special,
Then you couldn`t say no.
Did I nearly catch you smiling?
Yes I did. And it`s beguiling.
If you hand is close, I`ll press it.
Yes, you like it -- come confess it!
Yes, you do...
[WIDOW CORNEY]
No, I don`t.
[MR. BUBLE]
Yes, you do!
[WIDOW CORNEY]
I shall scream! I shall scream!
`Til they hasten to my rescue, I shall scream.
[MR. BUMBLE]
Since there`s nobody that`s near us
Who cold see us. or could hear us?
If you ask you can I kiss you
Say what will my pretty miss do?
[WIDOW CORNEY]
I shall scream, scream, scream!
[MR. BUMBLE]
If I pinch you one pinch --
From you shy protective shell
Can I un-inch you one inch?
Will my blinthesome, buxum beauty
Let her suitor do his duty?
Tho` his lap ain`t very large, dear
Sit upon it -- There`s no charge, dear.
Will you sit?
[WIDOW CORNEY]
No, I shan`t
[MR. BUMBLE]
Will you sit?
[WIDOW BUMBLE]
I shall scream! I shall scream!
For the safety of my virtue I shall sream
Tho` your knee is rather cosy,
See my cheeks are getting rosy.
You would have me in your power.
If I sat here for an hour...
[MR. BUMBLE]
I shall scream, scream, scream!
[WIDOW CORNEY]
You`re a naughty bad man.
If you think I can`t be proper,
Prim and haughty -- I can
And you`ll pardon if I mention
You must state your true intention.
[MR. BUMBLE]
Is there not another room here?
[WIDOW CORNEY]
No!
[MR. BUMBLE]
If there would be a bride and groom here --- would there be?
[WIDOW CORNEY]
Well there might.
[MR. BUMBLE]
We shall see.
[WIDOW CORNEY]
I shall scream! I shall scream!
At the thought of what you`re thinking, I shall scream!
[MR. BUMBLE]
You will wonder where the scream went
When we ome to an agreement
As my lovey-dovey is chubby
Could she love a chubby hubby?
[WIDOW CORNEY]
I shall scream, Mr. Bumble!
I shall scream, Bumble-Wumble!
I shall scream, scream, scream!
