Three little maids from school are we

Pert as a schoolgirl well can be

Filled to the brim

with girlish glee-hee!

Three little maids from school

Everything is a source of fun...

TRUDY:
Get me a program!

"Costumes by..."

Tilly Dunnage...

That b*tch!

Three little maids

who, all unwary

Come from a ladies' seminary...

- They're very good.

- Shut up!

Three little maids from school...

Is no longer cursed.

One little maid is a bride

Yum-Yum

Two little maids in attendance come

Three little maids is the total sum

Three little maids from school

Three little maids from school

Three little maids from school

Three little maids

from school.

In, in, in. Everybody.

We are still the best.

Where's Evan?

Reggie, where's Councillor Pettyman?

He's dead.

No, not till act 2, scene 1.

No, he's actually dead.

They've taken her away.

Where are you headed, miss?

Paris.

Uh, this train's direct to Melbourne

with stops at Hay, Ouyen and Birchip.

Melbourne, then.

Hmm. Fire someplace.

Yes.

Burning off rubbish, were they?

Looks like they overdid it.

You never met the rubbish.
