cy coleman – the prince of humbug lyrics
[barnum]
the prince of humbug
balderdash
fiddle, faddle, drivel, posh
twiddle, twaddle, blather, bosh
bilge and dodge and double-dutch
and flim-flam i am!
the king of hogwash
tommyrot
jibber, jabber, blabber, bluff
hocus-pocus, gabble, guff
scam and sham and just a touch
of white lie am i
duke of tripe and idle chat
earl of oil, lord of blat
emperor of rigmarole
that i am, bless my soul
the prince of humbug
poppyc-ck
piffle, waffle, patter junk
hok-m, hooey, chatter, bunk
wile and guile and trumpery
that’s me
in a world of sting and shock
this moment we spend
down a road of ridge and rock
toward lord knows what end
through a night as dark as sp-ce and cold as the sea
someone’s got to make it right
shoot a rocket, shine a light
tell you who that someone’s gonna be!
the prince of humbug
tongue-in-cheek
shilly, shally, pull the wool
blarney, bogus, c-ck and bull
hoax and prank and hanky-pank
and some skullduggery
i am! and d-mn, i’ll always be!
yeah!
