Sung by Katisha and Ko-Ko
- Katisha:
- There is beauty in the bellow of the blast,
- There is grandeur in the growling of the gale,
- There is eloquent outpouring
- When the lion is a-roaring,
- And the tiger is a-lashing of his tail!
- Ko-Ko:
- Yes, I like to see a tiger
- From the Congo or the Niger,
- And especially when lashing of his tail!
- Katisha:
- Volcanoes have a splendor that is grim,
- And earthquakes only terrify the dolts,
- But to him who's scientific
- There's nothing that's terrific
- In the falling of a flight of thunderbolts!
- Ko-Ko:
- Yes, in spite of all my meekness,
- If I have a little weakness,
- It's a passion for a flight of thunderbolts!
- both:
- If that is so,
- Sing derry down derry!
- It's evident, very,
- Our tastes are one.
- Away we'll go,
- And merrily marry,
- Nor tardily tarry,
- Till day is done!
