# I hesitate to spoil the effect, but in the early 1960s in England my mother
# would sing a parody of this (indeed very lovely) song that began "Oh dear,
# what can the matter be? Three old ladies locked in the lavatory!" (The
# local pronunciation "lavatree" helps to squeeze all the syllables in :-)
