Come let me show you round my cabinet of curios,
The wonders of the natural world revealed before your eyes.
Spectacular obscurities collected by adventurers,
From Timbuktu to Borneo revealed before your eyes.
This pickled squid is 12 foot long, and k**ed a man when it was caught,
This chicken beak has seven teeth, this heart is open wide.
And here we have a rarity the hoof-print of a unicorn,
This hummingbird is so tiny, no bigger than a bee.
These babies in formaldehyde show deformities of every kind,
This one was born with a second head and this one with a tail.
And a wizard's wand and a dodos claw, a Schubert song and an ancient book of lore,
This slide holds a tiny slice of Albert Einstein's brain.
3 shrunken heads with the lips sewn up, and this one wears a French moustache,
These are toenail clippings from the Marquis de Sade.
And this rock fell from outer space, and landed in a cemetery,
This medieval scroll contains prophecies of doom.
The headstone a genius, And Paganini's fingertips,
Vincent van Gogh's missing ear, and a curse from a pharaoh's tomb
And a wizard's wand and a dodos claw, a Schubert song and an ancient book of lore,
This slide holds a tiny slice of Albert Einstein's brain.
So, come and let me show you round my cabinet of curios,
The wonders of the natural world revealed before your eyes.
Spectacular obscurities collected by adventurers,
From Timbuktu to Borneo revealed before your eyes.
