Walt Disney Records - Eglantine, Don't Let Me Down lyrics

[Emelius Brown] Let us strike a bargain You possess a gift But I can speak the jargon that will give your gift the needed lift You possess the know-how And I command the show-how Oh how successful you could be With me [Chorus] Eglantine, Eglantine Oh how you shine! Your lot and my lot Have got to combine! Eglantine, Eglantine Hark to the stars Destiny calls us The future is ours As the shine sells the boot And the blossoms the fruit All you need to succeed in your plan Is the proper ally Upon whom to rely And I'm your man For I have an acumen That's nigh superhuman I sell things that nobody can! So I humbly suggest You accept my behest I'm your man [Chorus] Eglantine, Eglantine Oh how you shine! Your lot and my lot Have got to combine! Eglantine, Eglantine Hark to the stars Destiny calls us The future is ours With my expert pantomiming The proper taste in timing I'll introduce you in the manner grand I'll whet their appetite for you I'll set the scene so right for you We'll have the beggars eating out of your hand As the words sell the tune And the moonbeams the moon All you need to succeed in your plan Is a champion rare With a flourish and a flair And I'm your man! [Eglantine] I have always had a bit of a knack for witchcraft Common spells and simple charms came naturally So when the war began I conjured up a plan To do my bit in the national emergency I enrolled in your correspondence college of witchcraft And I slaved at every lesson as it came But the spell I counted on Is the lesson that is gone It's disappeared and you're the one to blame! Your suggestions are rash And your manner is brash And I no time to waste Mr. Brown If I am to proceed its that book that I need Don't let me down! But if you'll see my through I'll discuss it with you Thought I have no taste for playing a clown If I meet with success then I might acquiesce [Emelius] I won't let you down! Eglantine, Eglantine! Oh, how you'll shine! Your lot and my lot have got to combine Eglantine, Eglantine! Hark to the stars [Both] Destiny calls us - The future is ours!
