The Last Word

Mariah, Mariah They call the wind Mariah.

Away out here they got a name for rain and wind and fire.
The rain is Tess, the fire's Joe. They call the wind Mariah.
Mariah blows the stars around and sends the clouds a flyin'.
Mariah makes the mountains sound like folks were up there dyin'

Mariah, Mariah They call the wind Mariah.

Before I knew Mariahs' name and heard her wail and whinin'
I had a girl and she had me and the sun was always shinin'
But then one day I left my girl I left her far behind me
And now I'm lost so gall durn lost not even God can find me.

Mariah, Mariah They call the wind Mariah.

Out here they got a name for rain for wind and fire only
But when you're lost and all alone there ain't no word for lonely.
And I'm a lost and lonely man without a star to guide me.
Mariah blow my love to me. I need my girl beside me.

Mariah, Mariah They call the wind Mariah.
Mariah, Mariah Blow my love to me.

Aaaah phooey!
I never wanted to do this in the first place!
I... I wanted to be...

A LUMBERJACK!

Leaping from tree to tree! As they float down the mighty rivers of
British Columbia! With my best girl by my side!
The Larch!
The Pine!
The Giant Redwood tree!
The Sequoia!
The Little Whopping Rule Tree!
We'd sing! Sing! Sing!

Oh, I'm a lumberjack, and I'm okay,
I sleep all night and I work all day.

CHORUS: He's a lumberjack, and he's okay,
He sleeps all night and he works all day.

I cut down trees, I eat my lunch,
I go to the lavatory.
On Wednesdays I go shoppin'
And have buttered scones for tea.

Mounties: He cuts down trees, he eats his lunch,
He goes to the lavatory.
On Wednesdays he goes shoppin'
And has buttered scones for tea.

CHORUS

I cut down trees, I skip and jump,
I like to press wild flowers.
I put on women's clothing,
And hang around in bars.

Mounties: He cuts down trees, he skips and jumps,
He likes to press wild flowers.
He puts on women's clothing
And hangs around.... In bars???????

CHORUS

I chop down trees, I wear high heels,
Suspenders and a bra.
I wish I'd been a girlie
Just like my dear papa.

Mounties: He cuts down trees, he wears high heels
Suspenders and a .... a Bra????
(mounties break off song, and begin insulting lumberjack)

Girl: (crying) I thought you were so rugged!

Listen. I have put a pellet of poison in one of the vessels.

Hawkins
Which one?

Griselda
The one with the figure of a pestle.

Hawkins
The vessel with the pestle?

Griselda
Yes. But you don't want the vessel with the pestle, you want the
chalice from the palace!

Hawkins
I-I don't want the vessel with the pestle, I want the chalice
from the what?

Jean
The chalice from the palace!

Hawkins
Hm?

Griselda
It's a little crystal chalice with a figure of a palace.

Hawkins

Griselda
No, the pellet with the poison's in the vessel with the pestle.

Hawkins
Oh, oh, the pestle with the vessel.

Jean
The vessel with the pestle.

Hawkins
What about the palace from the chalice?

Griselda
Not the palace from the chalice! The chalice from the palace!

Hawkins
Where's the pellet with the poison?

Griselda
In the vessel with the pestle!

Jean
Don't you see? The pellet with the poison's in the vessel with
the pestle.

Griselda
The chalice from the palace has the brew that is true!

Jean
It's so easy, I can say it!

Hawkins
Well then you fight him!

Griselda
Listen carefully. The pellet with the poison's in the vessel with
the pestle, the chalice from the palace has the brew that is
true.

Hawkins
Where the pellet with the poison's in the vessel with the pestle,
the chalice from the palace has the brew that is true.

Jean
Good man!

Griselda
Just remember that.

Sorry!

..but....but what about Griselda?

You do know she carries a torch for you? Or was it a whistle in the thistles or even a rustle in the bushes?

..and what about the Lupin Express?
