Come to the Supermarket (In Old Peking) |
| If you want a fancy fan |
| Or a turkey born in Turkey-stan |
| Or a slave that’s awf’lly African |
| Or a Teapot early Ming, |
| Come to the supermarket in old Peking. |
| If you want to buy a kite |
| Or a pup to keep you up at night |
| Or a dwarf who used to know Snow White |
| Or a frog who loves to sing, |
| Come to the supermarket in old Peking. |
| They have: sunflow’r cakes, moonbeam cakes, |
| Gizzard cakes, lizard cakes, |
| Pickled eels, pickle snakes, |
| Fit for any king, |
| If you want a bust of jade |
| Or an egg that’s more or less decayed |
| Or in case you care to meet a maid |
| For a nice but naughty fling, |
| Come to the supermarket, |
| If you come on an ostrich, you can park it, |
| So come to the supermarket |
| And see Pe- |
| King. |
| If you want a gong to beat |
| Or a rickshaw with a sassy seat |
| Or a painting slightly indiscreet |
| That is simply riveting, |
| Come to the supermarket and see Peking. |
| Well, If you want some calico |
| Or a gentle water buffalo |
| Glow worm guaranteed to glow |
| Or a cloak inclined to cling, |
| Come to the supermarket in old Peking. |
| They have bird’s-nest soup, seaweed soup, |
| Noodle soup, poodle soup, |
| Talking crows with the croup, |
| Almost anything. |
| If you want to buy a saw |
| Or a fish delicious when it’s raw |
| Or a pill to kill your moth’r-in-law |
| Or a bee without a sting, |
| Come to the supermarket, |
| If you come on a turtle, you can park it, |
| So come to the supermarket |
| If you come on a goose, you can park it, |
| So come to the supermarket |
| And see |
| Pe- |
| King! |
