Museum Song Songtext

von Jim Dale

Everything about my museum was spectacular,
Including the price. One Dollar.
Now, that might seem a bit steep, but it was worth it.
Look at what I gave them.

(Sung)
Quite a lotta Roman Terracotta,
Living lava from the flanks of Etna,
Statuary, Ride a Dromedary,
See the temple tumble and the Red Sea part.

MacNamera's band, the fatest lady in the land,
A pickled prehistoric hand, a strand of pocahontas' hair.
Crow and Sioux who're going to be showing you
Some rowing through a model of the rapids on the Delaware.

Armadillas, clever caterpillars,
Reproductions of the cyclops retna,
Crystal blowing, automatic sewing,
Venus on a shell and other works of art.

Educated fleas, a tribe of aboriginees,
Two ladies joined across the knees,
A mona lisa made of ice.
Hottentos, we've gotten in
Forgotten spots, a cotton gin,
A night with Lot in Sodom, better see that twice.

One iguana, snakes and other fauna,
Got no bearded lady but we're getting her,
When you duck out, take another buck out,
Run around the block and see a new show start.
