(Tommy Boyce and Bobby Hart)
|
Ev'ryone in town knew Mr. Webster;
|
He worked at the bank for forty years.
|
And each week Mr. Frizby made his check out
|
For sixty-eight dollars clear.
|
|
And thru the years he thwarted twenty-seven robberies
|
And each time Frizby promised him a raise.
|
|
They gave a retirement party for Mr. Webster
|
Everyone from the bank was there.
|
They had a cake and flowers ordered special
|
And Frizby had a speech prepared.
|
|
And a little white box that held a watch with this inscription
|
"To Mr. Webster, with regards."
|
|
Then came the telegram from Mr. Webster
|
Said, "Sorry...stop...Cannot attend..
|
I've flown away and taken all your money
|
Wish you were here to help me spend."
|
|
And one by one all the people left the party
|
And Mr. Frizby locked the door.
