Nursing Attendant
Dear High Poobah
The council waits for you
The Councilors and Brethren
Are here for you
High Poobah
Ah gentlemen, you know why we are here
With not much time, and quite a problem here
Crowd Outside
What's Ordain Women?
2nd Poobah
Listen to that howling mob
Of ex-mormons in the street
A fleck or two of history
And the whole town's on its feet
All
Who is Kate Kelly? Who is Kate Kelly?
Crowd
Somebody named Kelly?
Who the heck did you say you are?
Brethren
She is dangerous, dangerous
That woman is in town right now
To whip up some support
A rabble rousing mission
That I think we must abort
She is dangerous
Crowd
The World Cup is almost here
Brethren
She is dangerous
Look High Poobah
They are right outside our yard
Quick High Poobah
Go call the Orem guard
High Poobah
No wait, we need a more permanent solution to our problem.
2nd Poobah
What shall we do about Kate of Virginia?
Rabble rouser, pilgrim or tool?
Brethren
No riots, no ex-mormons, no fighting, no slogans
High Poobah
One thing to say for her, Kate is cool
2nd Poobah
We dare not leave her to her own devices
Her female fans will get out of control
Brethren
But how can we stop her, her glamour increases
With every minute, she's top of the pole
High Poobah
I see bad things arising
The crowd crown her Priestess
Which the Gods would then ban
I see another war in Heaven
Our diminution because of this woman
Another war in Heaven
Because of this woman
Voices
What can we do about this Katemania?
How can we deal with this lawyer queen?
Where do we start with a woman who is bigger
Than Sonja was when Sonja did her ERA thing?
High Poobah
Brethren! You have no perception
The stakes we are gambling
Are frighteningly high
We must crush her completely
So like Sonja before her
This Kate Kelly must flee
For the sake of the Brethren
Kate Kelly must flee
Must flee, must flee
Kate Kelly must flee

Andrew Lloyd Weber would be proud. Well done.

I'd rather be a could-be if I cannot be an are; because a could-be is a maybe who - is reaching for a star. I'd rather be a has-been than a might-have-been, by far; for a might have-been has never been, but a has was once an are. - Milton Berle
