You've eard ow young Albert Ramsbottom [00:00:00]

At the zoo up at Blackpool one year [00:00:02]

With a stick with an orse's ead andle [00:00:05]

Gave a lion a poke in the ear [00:00:07]

The name of the lion was Wallace [00:00:09]

The poke in the ear made im wild [00:00:12]

And before you could say Bob's yer uncle [00:00:14]

Ed upped and e'd swallowed the child [00:00:17]

E were sorry the moment e done it [00:00:19]

With children e'd always been chums [00:00:23]

And besides e'd no teeth in his muzzle [00:00:25]

And e couldn't chew Albert on't gums [00:00:28]

E could feel the lad movin inside im [00:00:31]

As e lay on is bed of dried ferns [00:00:34]

And it might ave been little lad's birthday [00:00:37]

E wished im such appy returns [00:00:40]

Meanwhile Mr and Mrs Ramsbottom [00:00:43]

Ad gone back to their tea feelin' blue [00:00:45]

Ma said I feel down in the mouth like [00:00:48]

Pa said Aye I bet Albert does too [00:00:52]

Said Mother It just goes to show yer [00:00:55]

That the future is never revealed [00:00:58]

If I'd thowt we was goin' to lose im [00:01:01]

I'd ave not ad is boots soled and eeled [00:01:03]

Let's look on the bright side said Father [00:01:07]

Wot can't be elped must be endured [00:01:09]

Each cloud as a silvery lining [00:01:12]

And we did ave young Albert insured [00:01:15]

A knock on the door came that moment [00:01:19]

As Father these kind words did speak [00:01:21]

Twas the man from Prudential e'd come for [00:01:24]

Their tuppence per person per week [00:01:28]

When Father saw oo ad been knockin' [00:01:31]

E laughed and e kept laughin so [00:01:33]

The man said Ere wot's there to laugh at [00:01:36]

Pa said You'll laugh an' all when you know [00:01:40]

Excuse im for laughing said Mother [00:01:43]

But really things appen so strange [00:01:46]

Our Albert's been et by a lion [00:01:49]

You've got to pay us for a change [00:01:51]

Said the young man from the Prudential [00:01:54]

Now come come let's understand this [00:01:57]

You don't mean to say that you've lost im [00:02:00]

Pa said Oh no we know where e is [00:02:03]

When the young man ad eard all the details [00:02:07]

A purse from is pocket he drew [00:02:10]

And e paid them with interest and bonus [00:02:12]

The sum of nine pounds four and two [00:02:16]

Pa ad scarce got is and on the money [00:02:19]

When a face at the window they see [00:02:22]

And Mother cried Eee look it's Albert [00:02:25]

And Father said Aye it would be [00:02:29]

Albert came in all excited [00:02:32]

And started is story to give [00:02:35]

And Pa said I'll never trust lions [00:02:37]

Again not as long as I live [00:02:39]

The young man from the Prudential [00:02:43]

To pick up the money began [00:02:45]

But Father said ere wait a moment [00:02:47]

Don't be in a urry young man [00:02:50]

Then giving young Albert a shilling [00:02:53]

E said Ere pop off back to the zoo [00:02:55]

Get your stick with the orse's ead andle [00:02:58]

Go and see wot the tigers can do[00:03:01]
