:16:01
But I did not despair
I got a bright idea
:16:05
While searching
through my underwear
:16:07
A thought occurred to me
:16:08
I'm tired of training elephants
So why not train a flea
:16:14
Why should I hunt for animals
And through the jungle roam
:16:18
When there's local talent
to be found right here at home
:16:23
I found one but I won't say where
:16:26
And educated him with care
:16:29
And taught him
all the facts of life
:16:32
And then he found himself a wife
:16:34
I give them board and lodging free
:16:37
And every night they dine off me
:16:40
They don't eat caviar or cake
:16:43
But they enjoy a good rump steak
:16:45
Off my anatomy
Off my anatomy
:16:49
It is an odd sensation
:16:51
When after meals they take a stroll
Around the old plantation
:16:57
Now I'm as happy as can be
:16:59
I've taught them lots of tricks
you see
:17:02
And now they're both supporting me
They're both supporting me
:17:08
So walk up, walk up
I've the greatest show on earth
:17:11
Walk up, walk up
And get your money's worth
:17:15
See Phyllis and Henry
Those educated fleas
:17:18
Cavorting and sporting
On the flying trapeze
:17:22
So any time you itch
Don't scratch or make a fuss
:17:25
You never can tell you might destroy
Some budding genius
:17:47
Phyllis! Henry! Stop that!
:17:49
What do you think you're doing?
:17:51
You ought to be ashamed
of yourselves, fighting like that!
:17:56
Alright. Phyllis, stay in the box!
Henry!
