(
Smyth/
Mc
Pherson) Transcribed by ir.drs. Ben Jos Walbeehm (
Walbeehm@fsw.ruu.nl) and Simon Roberts (roberts@airtime.co.uk) Date of last revision: February 23, 1996. The latest and greatest ... amazing arrival No conscience, no shame ... for the game of survival Thieves and villains ... and fraudulent swindlers Gathered in tribute ... with masks of respect
A big hand, hurray! Oh come on you trustful
Let the band play a waltz into mischief The chairman is speaking ... instructs the apprentice All faces are turned ... to the wizard of sentence Years of experience ... fall from his tongue
Like teardrops to puddles ... they rippled among
A big hand, hurray! Oh come on you trustful
Let the band play a waltz into mischief This kid of the cowboys ... of fastest deception Writes down his kiddings ... to ruptuous reception Calls on the crowd ... of white-pointed heads To check on the carpets ... while we're in our beds(
Nelly the elephant packed her trunk and said goodbye to the circus)A big hand, hurray! Oh come on you trustful
Let the band play a waltz into mischief
A big hand, hurray! Oh come on you trustful
Let the band play a waltz into mischief
A big hand, hurray! Oh come on you trustful
Let the band play a waltz into mischief
