Duke Special - The Prop Man lyrics

Into Wishbone Falls a travelling troupe has arrived There'll be theatre here tonight and it will soon come alive But what's this, an empty trunk, the props are gone Director's pa**ed out cold, now where is that Hector Mann? What to do? What to do? We need diamonds and a gun Need a whole play of props before we raise that curtain tonight Tonight Hey, stop that prop man, he'll clean out this whole town Thieving is believing that the show must go on Hey, stop that prop man, have you seen my wig? Could he possibly steal every prop for the gig? I heard he stole a gun right out of the sheriff's holster Stole furniture right out of its own upholstery He stole the necklace of a neck whilst doing a little jig And all the while upon his back a stolen roasted pig Hey, stop that prop man, he'll clean out this whole town Thieving is believing that the show must go on Hey, stop that prop man, have you seen my wig? Could he possibly steal every prop for the gig? But oh, the town belle and her lavender smell She flickers and blinks and he smiles and he winks And just when you think he's lost the game to distraction He steals her very heart - Mann, he's back in action Hey, stop that prop man, he'll clean out this whole town Thieving is believing that the show must go on Hey, stop that prop man, have you seen my wig? Could he possibly steal every prop for the gig? Hey, stop that prop man, he'll clean out this whole town Thieving is believing that the show must go on Hey, stop that prop man, have you seen my wig? Could he possibly steal every prop for the gig? Even though he robbed us blind we couldn't help but feel sad Cos we all know a good story is worth more than gold He knows that we know that he did it for art And when they cuffed him he smiled
