FREDERIC:
My eyes are fully open to my awful situation,
I shall go at once to Mabel and I'll make her an oration,
I will tell her I am bound by duty and my moral senses,
And I don't know what to do about the pending consequences,
Now I do not want to perish by the sword or by the dagger,
But a pirate must indulge a little pardonable swagger,
And a word or two of complement my vanity would flatter,
But I've got to go tonight, so it really doesn't matter.

KING:
So it really doesn't matter.

RUTH:

RUTH:
If this were not a little mad and generally silly,
I should give you my advice upon the subject willy-nilly,
I should show you in a moment how to grapple with the question,
And you'll really be astonished at the force of my suggestion,
On the subject I shall write you a most valuable letter,
Full of excellent suggestions when I feel a little better,
But at present I'm afraid I am as mad as any hatter,
So I'll sing this song from Ruddigore it really doesn't matter.

KING:
What we sing just doesn't matter.

KING:
If I had been so lucky as to have a steady mother,
Who could talk to me as we are talking now to one another,
Who could give me good advice when she discovered I was erring,
Which is just the very favour which on you I am conferring,
My existance would have made a rather interesting idyll,
And I might have lived and died a very decent indiwiddle,
This particularly rapid unintelligible patter,
Isn't generally heard and if it is it doesn't matter.
