[DRUM ROLL] Oh, what did Della wear, boy? What did Della wear? What did Della wear, boy? What did Della wear? She wore a bran' new jersey. She wore a bran' new jersey. She wore a bran' new jersey. That's what she did wear. One! Two! Three! Four! Oh, why did Calla 'phone ya? Why did Calla 'phone? Why did Calla 'phone ya? Was she all alone? She called to say how ar' ya. She called to say how ar' ya. She called to say how ar' ya. That's why she did call. Uno! Due! Tre! Quattro! [ITALIAN] Oh, what did Mrs sip, boy? What did Mrs sip? What did Mrs sip, boy, Through her pretty lips? She sipped a Minne soda. She sipped a Minne soda. She sipped a Minne soda. That's what she did sip. Un! Deux! Trois! Quatre! [FRENCH] Oh, where has Ore gone, boy? Where has Ore gone? If you want, I'll ask 'er. I'll ask 'er where she's gone. She went to pay her taxes. She went to pay her taxes. She went to pay her taxes. That's where she has gone. Eins! Zwei! Drei! Vier! [GERMAN] Oh, how did Wiscon sin, boy? She stole a new brass key. Too bad that Arkan saw, boy, And so did Tenne see. It made poor Flori die, boy. It made poor Flori die, you see. She died in misery, boy. She died in misery. Oh, what did Della wear, boy? What did Della wear? What did Della wear boy? What did Della wear? [WHISTLE AND FADE]
