CORA:<br>
Lock 'em up! Put 'em away <br>
In the Jar!<br>
Time to start getting the nets out!<br>
Lock 'em up!<br>
Into the cage!<br>
Quietly: no one must know.<br>
Cart 'em of into the bin,<br>
Turn the key.<br>
Quick before anyone gets out!<br>
Turn the key, throw it away,<br>
There we are. Forty-eight to go!<br>
<br>
Detmold! Check in your patients.<br>
<br>
DETMOLD:<br>
Yes, Your Honor? Your name, Madame?<br>
<br>
OLD LADY:<br>
This doesn't fit. It's much too big, I wear a size three-well, maybe a four.<br>
<br>
DETMOLD:<br>
Did you always hate your father?<br>
<br>
CORA:<br>
Detmold, arrest her now and convict her later. There is really only one question that needs answering:<br>
Are they breathing? Then they're Cookies.<br>
Are they moving? Then they're Cookies.<br>
Are they living? Then they're Cookies.<br>
So get on with it! Quick, get on with it!<br>
Are they human? Then they're Cookies.<br>
So shut up, my dear Doctor, and shut up her too!<br>
Lookie, lookie, here comes Cookie<br>
Now.<br>
Naughty Cookie, playing hookey-<br>
That we don't allow.<br>
Cigarette?<br>
Light?<br>
Thanks.<br>
Get them.<br>
You take the key, my love,<br>
I'm too exhausted to move!<br>
Music, I must have music,<br>
A moment's music or my head will burst!<br>
I know you'll meet the test-<br>
You've been well rehearsed.<br>
Do your best<br>
(Meaning do your worst),<br>
Let me rest<br>
And remember, Schubchen:<br>
Women and children first!<br>
<br>
CORA, SCHUB, COOLEY AND MAGRUDER:<br>
Hmm...<br>
Lock 'em up! Put 'em away <br>
In the Jar!<br>
Time to start getting the nets out!<br>
Lock 'em up!<br>
Into the cage!<br>
Quietly: no one must know.<br>
<br>
QUARTET AND ENSEMBLE:<br>
Lock 'em up! Put 'em away <br>
In the Jar!<br>
Time to start getting the nets out!<br>
Lock 'em up!<br>
Into the cage!<br>
Quietly: no one must know.<br>
Cart 'em of into the bin,<br>
Turn the key.<br>
Quick before anyone gets out!<br>
Turn the key, throw it away,<br>
There we are. Forty-two to go!<br>
<br>

Ooh, la, la. Monsieur Schub.<br>
