2. Look Out for Mister Stork 2:16
Words by Ned Washington
Music by Frank Churchill
Performed by Chorus

Look out for Mister Stork
That persevering chap
He'll come along and drop a bundle in your lap
You may be poor or rich It doesn't matter which
Millionaires they get theirs like
The butcher and the baker
So look out for Mister Stork
And let me tell you, friend
Don't try to get away
He'll find you in the end
He'll spot you out in China
Or he'll fly to County Cork
So you'd better look out for Mister Stork
{Musical Interlude}
Look out for Mister Stork
He's got you on his list
And when he comes around
It's useless to resist
Remember those quintuplets
And the woman in the shoe
Maybe he's got his eye on you

Lyrics written by Ned Washington
Music composed by Frank Churchill
Performed by Chorus

It's Casey Junior comin' down the track
Comin' down the track
With a smokey stack
Hear him puffin' 'round the hill
Casey's here to thrill
Ev'ry Jack and Jill
Ev'ry time his funny little whistle sounds
(Toot toot)
Ev'rybody hurries to the Circus grounds
Time for lemonade and crackerjack
Casey Junior's back
Casey Junior's back




4. Song of the Roustabouts 2:38
Lyrics written by Ned Washington
Music composed by Frank Churchill
Performed by Chorus

We work all day, we work all night
We never learned to read or write
We're happy hearted roustabouts
When other folks have gone to bed
We slave until we're almost dead
We're happy hearted roustabouts
We don't know when we get our pay
And when we do we throw our pay away
We get our pay when the children say with happy hearts,
"It's a circus day today"
Muscles achin' Back near breakin'
Eggs and bacon's what we need
Boss man houndin' Keep on poundin'
For your bed and feed
There ain't no let up
Must get set up
Pull that canvas, drive that stake
Want to doze off
Get them clothes off
But must keep awake
Swing that sledge, sing that song
Work and laugh the whole night long
You happy hearted roustabouts
Pullin', pounding', trying', groundin'
Big top roundin' into shape
Keep on workin'
Stop that shirkin'
Grab that rope, you hairy ape
Poundin' poundin' poundin' poundin'
pound, pound, pound, pound, pound

Baby mine, don't you cry
Baby mine, dry your eyes
Rest your head close to my heart
Never to part, baby of mine
Little one when you play
Don't you mind what they say
Let those eyes sparkle and shine
Never a tear, baby of mine
If they knew sweet little you
They'd end up loving you too
All those same people who scold you
What they'd give just for
The right to hold you
From your head to your toes
You're not much, goodness knows
But you're so precious to me
Cute as can be, baby of mine

Look out! Look out!
Pink elephants on parade
Here they come!
Hippety hoppety
They're here and there
Pink elephants ev'rywhere
Look out! Look out!
They're walking around the bed
On their head
Clippety cloppety arrayed in braid
Pink elephants on parade
What'll I do?
What'll I do?
What unusual view
I can stand the sight of worms
And look at microscopic germs
But technicolor pachyderms
Is really too much for me
I am not the type to faint
When things are odd or things are quaint
But seeing things you know that ain't
can certainly give you an awful fright
What a sight!
Chase'em away!
Chase'em away!
I'm afraid need your aid
Pink elephants on parade
Pink elephants!
Pink elephants!
Pink elephants!

Ha, haha, did you ever see an elephant fly?
Hi, well I'd seen a horse fly
Ahaa, I'd seen a dragon fly
Hihi, I'd seen a house fly
(Laughing)
Yeah, I'd seen all that too
I see a peanut stand,
Heard a rubber band,
I see a needle that winked its eye.
But I'd been done seen about everything
When I see an elephant fly.
I said, when I see an elephant fly
I see a front porch swing,
Heard a diamond ring,
I see a polka-dot railroad tie.
But I'd been done seen about everything
When I see an elephant fly.
I seen a clothes horse he r'ar up and buck
And they tell me that a man made a vegetable truck
I didn't see that I only heard
But just to be sociable I'll take your word
I heard a fireside chat
I saw a baseball bat
And I just laughed till I thought I'd die
But I'd been done seen about everything
When I see an elephant fly.
