Barnum movie - Museum Song lyrics

rate me

<br>

Spoken:<br>

Everything about my museum was spectacular, <br>

including the price: one dollar. <br>

Now that may seem a bit steep, but it was worth<br>

it. Look at what I gave 'em:<br>

<br>

Sung:<br>

Quite a lotta<br>

Roman terra cotta<br>

Livin' lava from the flanks of Etna<br>

Statuary<br>

Ride a dromedary<br>

See the Temple tumble and the Red Sea part.<br>

<br>

McNamara's band<br>

The fattest lady in the land<br>

A pickled prehistoric hand<br>

A strand of Pocahontas' hair<br>

Crow and Sioux<br>

Who're going to<br>

Be showing you<br>

Some rowing through<br>

A model of the rapids on the Delaware.<br>

<br>

Armadillas<br>

Clever caterpillas<br>

Reproductions of the Cyclops' ret'na<br>

Crystal blowing<br>

Automatic sewing<br>

Venus on a shell and other works of art.<br>

<br>

Educated fleas<br>

A tribe of Aborigines<br>

Two ladies joined across the knees<br>

A Mona Lisa made of ice<br>

Hottentots<br>

We've gotten in<br>

Forgotten spots<br>

A cotton gin<br>

A night with Lot in Sodom<br>

Better see that twice!<br>

<br>

One iguana<br>

Snakes and other fauna<br>

Got no bearded lady but we're get'na<br>

When you duck out<br>

Take another buck out<br>

Run around the block And see a <br>

Run around the block and see a<br>

Run around the block and see a<br>

new show start.<br>

<br>

<br>
