The Maladjusted Jester - Danny Kaye[00:00:00]

I am prepared to make a statement[00:00:00]

When I was a lad I was gloomy and sad[00:00:04]

And I was from the day I was born[00:00:06]

When other lads giggled and gurgled and wiggled[00:00:08]

I proudly was loudly forlorn[00:00:09]

My friends and my family looked at me clammily[00:00:11]

Thought there was something amiss[00:00:13]

When others found various antics hilarious[00:00:15]

All I could manage was this[00:00:17]

Or this he he[00:00:19]

Or this ho ho[00:00:20]

Or this waahhh[00:00:20]

My father he shouted he needs to be clouted[00:00:23]

His teeth on a wreath I'll hand him[00:00:24]

My mother she cried as she rushed to my side[00:00:26]

You re a brute and you don't understand him[00:00:28]

So they send for a witch with a terrible twitch[00:00:30]

To ask how my future impressed her[00:00:31]

She took one look at me and cried[00:00:33]

He he he he he he[00:00:35]

He he he he[00:00:37]

What else could he be but a jester[00:00:39]

A jester a jester a funny idea a jester[00:00:42]

No butcher no baker no candlestick maker[00:00:46]

And me with the look of a fine undertaker[00:00:48]

Impressed her[00:00:50]

As a jester[00:00:51]

Now where could I learn any comical turn[00:00:53]

That was not in a book on the shelf[00:00:55]

No teacher to take me and mold me and make me[00:00:57]

A merryman fool or an elf[00:00:59]

But I'm proud to recall that in no time at all[00:01:01]

With no other recourses but my own resources[00:01:02]

With firm application and determination[00:01:04]

I made a fool of myself[00:01:08]

I found a bow and arrow and I learned to shoot[00:01:15]

I bought a little a horn and I learned to toot[00:01:17]

Now I can shoot and toot ain't that cute[00:01:18]

I started to travel to try to unravel[00:01:27]

My mind and to find a new chance[00:01:29]

When I got to Spain it was suddenly plain[00:01:30]

That the field that appealed was the dance[00:01:32]

The Spanish were clannish but I wouldn't vanish[00:01:34]

I learned every step they had planned[00:01:36]

The first step of all isn't hard to recall[00:01:38]

'Cause the first step of all is to stand[00:01:40]

And stand[00:01:43]

And stand[00:01:45]

And stand[00:01:46]

I was badly injured but king was amused[00:02:28]

That before a siesta he made me his jester[00:02:31]

And I found out soon that to be a buffoon[00:02:33]

Was a serious thing as a rule[00:02:35]

For a jester's chief employment[00:02:37]

Is to kill himself for your enjoyment[00:02:38]

And a jester unemployed is nobody's fool[00:02:40]
