:16:01
pursued by a mountain lion!
:16:03
A forest fire!
:16:05
An abduction by balloon!
:16:07
And you shall see me,
the one and only,
:16:11
the inimitable
Anselme Deburau,
:16:14
who performed in the harem
before the Grand Turk
:16:19
and his 82 Turkesses!
:16:21
But fear not!
Inside you won't see
:16:24
this one here.
:16:26
Because he's a do-nothing!
:16:29
A dolt!
:16:31
A sleepwalker
:16:32
even sitting down.
:16:34
A nincompoop!
:16:37
A blockhead!
:16:39
A good-for-nothing!
:16:42
And this, alas, is my son.
:16:46
Here sits the shame
of an artistic family,
:16:49
a famous father's despair,
:16:51
the root of his gray hair.
:16:53
When I say my son,
luckily I exaggerate.
:16:56
One night, during a full moon,
:16:59
he fell from above...
into a bucket.
:17:02
When I got home
it was already too late.
:17:06
But I won't wash dirty linen here.
:17:09
The show's about to begin!
A unique show!
:17:12
For the penny-pinchers,
:17:14
tightfisted, miserly,
or parsimonious...
:17:18
the management,
sparing no expense,
:17:21
leaves them Baptiste,
free of charge!
:17:36
Baptiste! If you've any pups,
save me one!
:17:40
He really looks stupid,
doesn't he?
:17:43
I think he has lovely eyes.
:17:45
Lovely eyes!
:17:47
That deserves a hand!
