Mr Crow And Sir Norman |
Ventrilloquist was he, little boy sat on his knee |
The people knew that the show was but the best one in the land |
Until the night before the act |
The dummy’s clothes had all been packed away — he’d gone |
And he’d left poor Mr. Crow right in the lurch |
You know he’s gone far away |
I hear his voice go laughing |
What of all the years we shared? |
Hello Mr. Crow has your little boy left home — did he run away |
Well I hope he’ll soon be back to do the show |
I’m sorry you must feel quite sad when your dummy runs away without a word |
That is all old Mr. Crow had heard |
You know he’s gone far away |
I hear his voice go laughing |
What of all the years we shared? |
Now come on Mr. Crow my dear |
We’d better have this gottle o' geer |
Then one fateful night into the dressing room so bright |
Walked our friend tabledoll |
Mr. Crow cried tears of joy all in his tea |
The bad doll said kindly address me as Sir Norman little man I am a star |
And if you weren’t so old maybe I’d let you be my doll |
You know I’ve been far away |
I’ve heard the people laugh |
Now I’m a great big star |
