Electric Light Orchestra - Mr. Crow And Sir Norman - Текст песни

Ventrilloquist was he, little boy sat on his knee 

	The people knew that the show was but the best one in the land 

	Until the night before the act 

	The dummy's clothes had all been packed away - he'd gone 

	And he'd left poor Mr. Crow right in the lurch 

	

		You know he's gone far away 

		I hear his voice go laughing 

		What of all the years we shared? 

	

	Hello Mr. Crow has your little boy left home - did he run away 

	Well I hope he'll soon be back to do the show 

	I'm sorry you must feel quite sad when your dummy runs away without a word 

	That is all old Mr. Crow had heard 

	

		You know he's gone far away 

		I hear his voice go laughing 

		What of all the years we shared? 

	

	Now come on Mr. Crow my dear 

	We'd better have this gottle o' geer 

	

	Then one fateful night into the dressing room so bright 

	Walked our friend tabledoll 

	Mr. Crow cried tears of joy all in his tea 

	The bad doll said kindly address me as Sir Norman little man I am a star 

	And if you weren't so old maybe I'd let you be my doll 

	

		You know I've been far away 

		I've heard the people laugh 

		Now I'm a great big star
