Captain:
I’d like to welcome you to Pinafore!
Crew:
And we add our welcome too!
Captain:
Now, I think it only right,
And exceedingly polite,
There is one thing you ought to do.
Crew:
Now, I think it only right,
And exceedingly polite,
There is one thing you ought to do.
Captain:
If you have a phone that’s smart,
Or a Special from Walmart ,
Or an i phone 6 or 3,
So that all enjoy our play,
Turn it off! Stow it away!
Phones we never want to hear or see.
Crew:
What never?
Captain:
No never!
Crew:
What never?
Captain:
Never ever!!
Crew:
Never ever want to hear or see, then,
All:
Give three cheers and one cheer more,
For cell phone silence on the Pinafore.
It’s rings and dings we all abhor, So….
“Turn ‘em off!” We say once more.
