The quartet on the stage strikes up a lively rendition of the Sheik of Araby, with Teagarden slithering sparkles coming off the 'bone. A strange young man leaps up onto the stage with an oversized coffee cup in his hand, with fumes coming out of it, and sings:
I'm the Sheik of Araby! With no pants on!
And your love belongs to me! With no pants on!
At night, when you're asleep...With no pants on!
Into your tent, i'll creep!With no pants on!

(The crowd has gotten into the swing, and roars out the ..no pants on..refrain along with the singer)

The stars that shine above,With no pants on!
Will light our way to love!With no pants on!
You'll rule this land with me...With no pants on!
I'm the sheik, the shake, the sheik of Araby!!!With no pants on!

(Strange young man sits down, staggering.)
