Winnifred: (reviewing the Knights) Hey nonny, nonny is it you? Knight: Hey nonny, nonny, nonny no! Winnifred: Hey nonny, nonny is it you? Another Knight: Hey nonny, nonny, nonny no! Winnifred: Hey, nonny, nonny is it you, or you, or you, or you, or? Dauntless: Nenny, nonny, nenny, nenny!!! Queen: No! No! No! Winnifred: Someone's being bashful; that's no way to be, not with me. Can't you see that I am just as embarrassed as you? And I can understand your point of view. I've always been? Shy!! I confess it, I'm shy! Can't you guess that this confident air is just a mask that I wear 'cause I'm shy? And you may be sure way down deep I'm demure, though some people I know might deny it at bottom I'm quiet and pure! I'm aware that it's wrong to be meek as I am; my chances may pass me by. I pretend to be strong, but as weak as I am, all I can do is try. God knows I? try! Though I'm frightened and shy! And despite the impression I give I confess that I'm living a lie? Because I'm actually terribly timid, and horribly shy? Though a lady may be dripping with glamour, as often as not she'll stumble and stammer when suddenly confronted with romance. And she's likely to fall of her face when she's finally face-to-face with a pair of pants. Quite often the lady's not as hard to please as she seems. Quite often she'll settle for something less than the man of her dreams? I'm going fishing for a mate! Knights: She's going fishing for a mate? Winnifred: I'm going to look in ev'ry brook! Knights: She's going to look in ev'ry brook? Winnifred: But how must longer must I wait with baited breath and hook? (Knights dance while Winnifred watches) Winnifred: Oh! That was wonderful! And that is why, though 'm painfully shy, I'm insane to know which sir? you, sir? Knights: Not I, sir! Winnifred: Then who, sir? Where, sir, and when, sir, I couldn't be tenser So let's get this done, man get on with the fun, man, I am one man? Knights: The lady is one man? Winnifred and Knights: Shy!
I'd love to see Tracey and Carol Burnett perform a skit.. even if only very brief! Please will some SNL alum plant this idea in Lorne Michael's ear? It would be magic. 😊💫💜✨️
I love the movie like Winifred it’s so funny and stuff when she say horribly like a loud note it was so funny but like what she said ly it was just so good
She overacts and pushes every single lyric, to the point that it sounds like she’s putting on an accent (when she’s actually British for real) because she over enunciates everything so much
I love how this is a movie but they created the set like they would on a stage.
I’ve been searching for this song for so long! I’ve had “Hey nonny nonny, is it you?” stuck in my head for at LEAST 10 years.
You can totally tell Tracy Ullman is having fun as Winifred!
I love that Carol Burnett got the chance to play both Winnifred and the Queen. That must have been so fun for her!
I still want to meet the legend of a Disney censor that allowed this musical to slip through.
I have to perform this song, and as someone who is VERY shy I’m so scared 😭
I would love to see these knights in combat.
They'd give the gangsters from West Side Story a good fight.
Winnifred: *claims that’s she’s shy*
Also Winnifred: *practically shouts the lyrics*
that's the joke
I kno. I did this 4 the school musical in 8th grade
@ least she’s not afraid of telling truth
Winnifred:

So let's get this done, man get on with the fun, man, I am one man?
Knights:
The lady is one man?
Winnifred and Knights:
Shy!
I can only see her as Jack’s Mom in Into the Woods
This was my musical this year lol it was a good one tho
Oh boy. i have to learn this now. i suppose if i'm going to get Winnifred in the play, i must. Here goes.
And it was 8 years ago, I wonder how it was...
How was it
love this song ^w^
I'd love to see Tracey and Carol Burnett perform a skit.. even if only very brief! Please will some SNL alum plant this idea in Lorne Michael's ear? It would be magic. 😊💫💜✨️
I was in this play 8 years ago
3:43 Why does this sound so much like a part of a song from Sweeney Todd
Winifred: i’m actually very timid and horribly shy
I love the movie like Winifred it’s so funny and stuff when she say horribly like a loud note it was so funny but like what she said ly it was just so good
Carol Burnett and…. Tracy Ullman?!?
And Tom Smothers and Zoey Deschanel.
And Carol Burnett was the original Winnifred in 1959
And Matthew Morrison
wait they have an old one and this one is the newest
Winifred: I’m terribly shy!!!
Go girl
What is her accent tho. I saw the movie and it was the most terrible thing I’d ever seen but it was still pretty fun.
Off of just this, it's either cockney or British
I'm leaning toward British though for how it sounds
@Emilio Valdovinos I thought it was okay
Its her british accent
I did a musical and I had fun
It was funny when she said super Duper is even funnier when I say it
She overacts and pushes every single lyric, to the point that it sounds like she’s putting on an accent (when she’s actually British for real) because she over enunciates everything so much
