Electric Light Orchestra - Mr. Crow And Sir Norman lyrics

Ventrilloquist was he, little boy sat on his knee The people knew that the show was but the best one in the land Until the night before the act The dummy's clothes had all been packed away - he'd gone And he'd left poor mr. crow right in the lurch You know he's gone far away I hear his voice go laughing What of all the years we shared? Hello mr. crow has your little boy left home - did he run away Well i hope he'll soon be back to do the show I'm sorry you must feel quite sad when your dummy runs away without a word That is all old mr. crow had heard You know he's gone far away I hear his voice go laughing What of all the years we shared? Now come on mr. crow my dear We'd better have this gottle o' geer Then one fateful night into the dressing room so bright Walked our friend tabledoll Mr. crow cried tears of joy all in his tea The bad doll said kindly address me as sir norman little man i am a star And if you weren't so old maybe i'd let you be my doll You know i've been far away I've heard the people laugh Now i'm a great big star
