Heres a how-de-do by Gilbert and Sullivan Lyrics

[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!

[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]
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!

[KO-KO]
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]
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!

[KO-KO]
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!
