A scene from Alice in Wonderland 1951
Alice

Mr. Rabbit. Oh, Mr. Rabbit. Oh, dear. I'm sure he came this way. Do you suppose he could be hiding? Hmm. Not here. I wonder... No. I suppose he must have... [upon seeing Tweedledee and Tweedledum] Why, what peculiar little figures. "Tweedledee," and "Tweedledum."

Tweedledum

[honk]

If you think we're waxworks, you ought to pay, you know.

Tweedledee

[beep]

Contrariwise, if you think we're alive you ought to speak to us.

Tweedledee and Tweedledum

That's logic.

Alice

Well... It's been nice meeting you. Goodbye.

Tweedledee

You're beginning backwards.

Tweedledum

The first thing in a visit is to say...

Tweedledee and Tweedledum

[singing together]

How d'ya do? And shake hands, shake hands, shake hands. How d'ya do? And shake hands and state your name and business. [both spoken] That's manners!
