Lyrics of The last straw

Perry . . .
Yes?
What's the matter?
Ah! with all the girls in the world
I gotta get tangled up with an acrobat!
What kinda crack is that?
Well, listen . . .

I gulped a little goldfish
From a goldfish bowl
Well, that proves your age!
Once i spent a weekend
On a cold flagpole!
Look ma, no hands!
Went over old niagara
In a leaky canoe
You betcha!
I even charmed a cobra
With a blue kazoo
I tied my little cousin
To a railroad track
Ouch!
I put the next to last straw
On the camel's back
But the last straw!
I mean the very last straw!
Was to fall in love with you . . .

Mr. como!
Are you quite through?
Well!
Well, listen to this . . .

I went and dug for oysters,
In the klondike rush,
I lost a whole safari
In an underbrush
That isn't easy!
Went over the sahara
On an old pair of skies
I did some acrobatics
On the high trapeze
Look man no hands!
I found a green banana
In some cracker jack
I placed the next to last straw
On the camel's back
But the last straw!
I mean the very last straw!
Was to fall in love with you . . .

All right man, top that!

I made an ocean voyage
On a floatin' log
That's nothin'
I've held a conversation
With a talking dog . . .
Victor of course!
I saved up nearly twenty-thousand
Pop bottle tops
Well, listen to this . . .
I designed the paper pants
For loin lamb chops
I tried to find a barber
Who would cut my hair
But baby doll,
Whatever maka you picka my chair?
Well, that's the last straw!
I mean the very last straw!
'cause i fell in love with you . . .

But perry . . .
You winked at me in woolworth's
On the second floor!
But i thought you were the hutton girl
That owned that big store!
Well, that's the last straw!
I mean the very last straw!
'cause i fell in love with you . . .
