<br>

BERTIE<br>

It's an English tradition<br>

We like to say hallo<br>

We hope by shaking hands that we'll recall your name<br>

We work on that basis, remembering faces<br>

But that's about all<br>

I know you're somebody something<br>

It's on the tip of my tongue<br>

You're either Edith Sitwell or the Bow Street Beak<br>

I'll know who you are, the moment you speak ...<br>

But meanwhile, just put in right there<br>

How do you do? <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

How do you do? <br>

<br>

GUSSIE<br>

How do you do? <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

Hallo again... <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

How goes it all? <br>

<br>

GUSSIE<br>

Good day to you <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

You keeping fit? <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

So great to meet you <br>

<br>

GUSSIE<br>

It's been an age <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

A tiny world <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

How do you - <br>

<br>

GUSSIE<br>

How do you - <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

How do you - <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

How do you - <br>

<br>

ALL<br>

How do you do? <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

How's life with you? <br>

<br>

GUSSIE<br>

Good evening all <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

You're looking well <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

Well, hi there, stranger <br>

<br>

GUSSIE<br>

Surprise, surprise <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

What could be nicer, meeting like this?<br>

I confess I've forgotten<br>

Who on earth you can be<br>

It could be you're Nijinsky or the man next door- <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

How do you - <br>

<br>

GUSSIE<br>

How do you - <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

How do you - <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

How do you - <br>

<br>

ALL<br>

How do you do? <br>

<br>

GUSSIE<br>

You're either Pablo Picasso <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

Or maybe Harpo Marx <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

You might be Sarah Bernhardt - no, you're Wittgenstein <br>

<br>

GUSSIE<br>

Whoever I am though, the pleasure's all mine <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

Let's take it and shake it right there <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

Well, fancy this <br>

<br>

GUSSIE<br>

It's surely not? <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

I can't believe <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

Good Lord alive! <br>

<br>

GUSSIE<br>

How long's it been? <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

You've hardly changed <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

You've lost some weight <br>

<br>

GUSSIE<br>

I can't believe it! <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

It's been a while <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

You're just the same <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

How do you - <br>

<br>

GUSSIE<br>

How do you - <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

How do you - <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

How do you - <br>

<br>

ALL<br>

How do you do? <br>

<br>

GUSSIE<br>

What brings you here? <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

How's life back home? <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

How's business been? <br>

<br>

GUSSIE<br>

And how's your father? <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

My sainted aunt!<br>

What could be better, meeting like this?<br>

Though I haven't an inkling<br>

Not a clue who you are<br>

You could be Amy Johnson <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

No, I'm Al Capone. How do you - <br>

<br>

GUSSIE<br>

How do you - <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

How do you - <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

How do you - <br>

<br>

ALL<br>

How do you do? <br>

<br>

BUDGE<br>

Aren't you Marlene Dietrich? <br>

<br>

GUSSIE<br>

I think I'm Bernard Shaw <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

It really doesn't matter who on earth you are<br>

The truth of it all is our friendship's been far<br>

Too long now to bother with names<br>

It's just another episode<br>

In the Wooster moral code<br>

Let's extend the hand of greeting <br>

<br>

ALL<br>

Hallo there, whoever you are<br>

How do you do <br>

<br>
