THREE LITTLE MAIDS FROM SCHOOL ARE WE
(Libretto by William S. Gilbert / Music by Sir Arthur Sullivan)
Sung by Yum-Yum, Peep-Bo, and Pitti-Sing
THE THREE.
Three little maids from school are we,
Pert as a school-girl well can be,
Filled to the brim with girlish glee,
Three little maids from school!
YUM-YUM.
Everything is a source of fun. (Chuckle)
PEEP-BO.
Nobody's safe, for we care for none! (Chuckle)
PITTI-SING.
Life is a joke that's just begun! (Chuckle)
THE THREE.
Three little maids from school!
THR THREE.
Three little maids who, all unwary,
Come from a ladies' seminary,
Freed from its genius tutelary--
Three little maids from school!
Three little maids from school!
YUM-YUM.
One little maid is a bride, Yum-Yum--
PEEP-BO.
Two little maids in attendance come--
PITTI-SING.
Three little maids is the total sum.
THE THREE.
Three little maids from school!
Three little maids from school!
YUM-YUM.
From three little maids take one away.
PEEP-BO.
Two little maids remain, and they--
PITTI-SING.
Won't have to wait very long, they say--
THE THREE.
Three little maids from school!
Three little maids from school!
THE THREE.
Three little maids who, all unwary,
Come from a ladies' seminary,
Freed from its genius tutelary--
Three little maids from school!
Three little maids from school!
