Tim Hart: SEAMUS THE SHOWMAN

 

I was a young man

He was an old man

He said he was a showman

And he knew what to do

He said his name was Seamus

And he would make me famous

And said it so sincerely

I believed it was true

 

He said all you need are lots of glossy photos

And a song about the alphabet

I said I've got the photos

But I´ll have to improvise the song

You see I haven't written it yet

 

(ch)And the showman he cried

They're all on your side

And you don't have to worry at all

 

So I sang

A is for horses,

B(eer)for your supper

C for yourself

You can't D-eny its true

If you E-ve a brick

When you F-ervesce

The G-ief of police will be after you

He'll H-ate you for it

And I-ll say I told you so

Let's J-walk on a summer's day

Down to the K-afe

For a cup of tea

To L with worry is what I say

(ch)

 

When the M-phasis

Is on N-tertainment

O, what a decent P-A will do

The people have Q-ed

For R-f an hour

It's S-enntial they can hear you sing

T for two

U for me,

V-ive la France

Then the W-phonium player pretended he was dead

The X started flying

And the Y-fe of our saxophonist

Threw one which landed

On his Z

(ch)

 

It really was regrettable

My song alphabetical

Went down like a lead balloon

So we made our exitus

With people throwing eggs at us

We smiled and said

We´ll be back soon

And the showman he cried........
