Re: she hails from the town of Titipu
Nanki-Poo:
Were you not to Ko-Ko plighted,
I would say in tender tone,
"Loved one, let us be united --
Let us be each other's own!"
I would merge all rank and station,
Worldly sneers are naught to us,
And, to mark my admiration,
I would kiss you fondly thus -- (Kissing her)
Yum-Yum:
He would kiss me fondly thus --
Nanki-Poo:
I would kiss you fondly thus --
(Kiss)
Yum-Yum:
But as I'm engaged to Ko-Ko,
To embrace you thus, con fuoco,
Would distinctly be no gioco
And for that I should get toco,
Nanki-Poo and Yum-Yum:
Toco
Nanki-Poo:
So in spite of all temptation,
Such a theme I'll not discuss,
And on no consideration
Will I kiss you fondly thus -- (Kissing her)
Will I kiss you fondly thus.
Let me make it clear to you,
This is what I'll never do,
This, oh, this -- oh, this -- oh, this -- (Kissing her)
This is what I'll never, never do
Yum-Yum:
This, oh, this -- oh, this -- oh, this --
This is what he'll never do!
Nanki-Poo:
This, oh, this -- oh, this -- oh, this --
This is what I'll never do!...
