Subject: Lyr Add: THE LOST WATCH (The Duke of Iron) From: RyBurhans Date: 26 Jun 14 - 10:11 AM This is one of the funniest calypsos I've ever worked on. Sounds like it could be a George Formby tune: The Lost Watch - Duke of Iron http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6iBhdFL9a4Q What a confusion A fellow lost his watch in the railway station What a confusion A fellow lost his watch in the railway station A Saga girl name Imelda Was suspected of bein' the burglar She had no purse, no pocket in her clothes But where she had the watch, only goodness knows And they hearin' Tick...Tick...Tick Everybody lookin' Tick...Tick...Tick See them how they searchin' Tick...Tick...Tick That's all they hearin' But they coul'nt find out where the watch was hidin' So, under suspicion They took her down to the police station And sent for the matron To examine every piece of clothes that she had on The matron examine with care She even make her pull out her long hair She searched her, she couldn't search no more But the watch now tickin' louder than before But they hearin' (Chorus) The matron hit on an idea That she could find the watch around somewhere She said she had an incentive And she could find the watch given privilege They divest Miss Imelda entirely And search her as if she was crazy The search was such so they decide that they turn Imelda's inside outside (Chorus) Confusion now in the station The matron searchin' by inspiration The watch tickin' louder and louder And the matron movin' up closer The matron, convinced there's no doubt She push her hand up inside Melda's...mouth And did you know, her idea came true For when she found the watch, it was ten to two Still tickin'! Tick...Tick...Tick Everybody lookin' Tick...Tick...Tick See them how they searchin' Tick...Tick...Tick That's all they hearin' But they now find out where the watch was hidin' |
