Hooray for Captain Spaulding

[Everyone in the song sings except Zeppo, who talk-sings]

 

[Zeppo, talk-singing]
There's something that I'd like to state
That he's too modest to relate
The Captain is a moral man
Sometimes he finds it trying

 

[Groucho]
This fact I'll emphasize with stress:
I never take a drink unless
Somebody's buying!

 

[Party guests]
The Captain is a very moral man!

 

[Zeppo, talk-singing]
If he hears anything obscene
He'll naturally repel it

[Groucho]
I hate a dirty joke I do
Unless it's told by someone whooo --
Knows how to tell it!

 

[Party guests]
The Captain is a very moral man!
Hooray for Captain Spaulding
The African Explorer!

 

[Groucho]

Did someone call me Schnorrer?

 

[Party guests]
Hooray hooray hooray!

[Zeppo, talk-singing]
He went into the jungle
Where all the monkeys THROW nuts

[Groucho]
If I stay here I'll GO nuts

[Party guests]
Hooray hooray hooray!
He put all his reliance
In courage and defiance
And risked his life for science!

 

[Groucho]
Hey hey!

[Margaret Dumont]
He is the only white man
Who covered every acre --

 

[Party guests]
Hooray hooray hooray!
He put all his reliance
In courage and defiance
And risked his life for science

[Groucho]
Hey hey!

 

[Party guests]
Hooray for Captain Spaulding
The African explorer!
He brought his name undying fame
And that is why we say:
Hooray! Hooray! Hooray!

[Groucho, spoken]
My friends, I am highly gratified at this
Magnificent display of effusion. And I want you to know -

[Party guests]
Hooray for Captain Spaulding
The African explorer!
He brought his name undying fame
And that is why we say:
Hooray! Hooray! Hooray!

[Groucho, singing]
Hooray for Captain Spaulding
The African (mumble)
(spoken): Well, somebody's gotta do it!

Not as long as it took to gather them.  You're invited to visit the hysterical collection. Admission is free, and you don't have to buy anything.  Judy accepts donations.  Please call to schedule an appointment.  Thank you.

If I ever get to Colorado i will make a point of it. I thought that I had collected a lot of cars in my lifetime but I am an amateur compared to you and bow respectfully to my betters.

Yeah, I agree; his collection is the largest I've ever seen. There used to be a farmer near where I lived in Pennsylvania who had over 200 cars scattered over his farm land, most were useless hulks, but, some were pretty nice and might have even been driveable. But, vikingminer49er's collection of all one brand, sure beats that Pennsylvania farmer's in size and exclusivity. ?
