All Aboard, a musical comedy that opened June 5, 1913 at Lew Fields' 44th Street Roof Garden in New York, as reviewed in The Sun, July 27, 1913, p. 12—
It is Ralph Riggs and his wife Katherine Witchie, who do the Cubist dance. The scene is in a studio of a Cubist and a Futurist painter and the lyrics of the song are as follows:
Said the Futurist boy to the Cubist girl
As they met on a poster blue:
"I don't know who the dickens I am—
and who in the deuce are you?"
Said the Cubist girl to the Futurist boy:
"We both were born, I think,
On a dark and dismal night last week
When the cat tipped over the ink."
Said the girl, "You must agree
We're awful sights to see."
Said the boy, "You seem to be
The girl that's made for me."
CHORUS
Oh, you Cubist girl, in cubes that curl
You little, wiggy-waggy, riggy-raggy,
ziggy-zaggy maid—
Picture puzzle queen,
From what I've seen
I think my style will suit you.
In the future when I'm painted
in every shade, like a crazy quilt,
although you're built,
to find you in the scramble
'Mong the cubes I'd love to ramble
A while some future day you'll be
My jumble ju-ju bee
My riggy-raggy,
Ziggy-zaggy,
Cubist girl.
