I'd take off so and get you off my mind,
But now I find
Why'd you have to turn off all that sunshine?
Oh, baby, please come back to break my heart for me.
'Cause I don't want to walk without you, no siree.
My pappy what got lost when I was born.
One look at me made him unhappy,
Forty years has gone since he was saw'n!
And I'll never come back 'till he comes with me.
'Cause I found out where to find my pappy,
My pappy what got lost when I was born!
I wanna be a life guard,
Just a public servin' life preservin' man.
[Popeye]
I wanna be a life guard,
With a million dollar coat of tan.
[Bluto]
So, if you want a life guard,
[Popeye]
You can bet your life that I'm your man.
If I were president, if I were president,
There'd be at least ten months of June,
For folks to spend their honeymoon,
And night winds would all have the sweetest scent.
If I were president.
Silk worms in every house would grow
And they would all be on the go
(In case there were a stocking accident).
If I were president.
And streets would all be spotless clean!
I'd have a cure that would work right,
For those who couldn't sleep at night.
The time they spent awake would be well-spent.
If I were president. If I were president.
The dogs whose habits all were strange
Would undergo a brand new change.
An all-day cone would cost a cent.
If I were president.
Each bus would have a smoother run,
With lots of seats for everyone.
Apartments once again would be for rent.
If I were president.
For drumsticks that fell short before.
I'd pick up feminine morale,
And get a man for every gal.
More holidays would get my strong consent.
If I were president.
She's a jolly good female,
She's a jolly good female,
She's a jolly good female.
We love our president.

What power supreme I enjoy!
Hey, speaking of kings,
I'm one of those things.
In fact I'm the real McCoy!
My army is made up of freaks!
My horses are found on the merry go round.
My slaves are Arabian sheiks.
Oh, I'm king of the Mardi Gras!
What's more, I'm the whole bloomin' show!
Oh, I'm king of the Mardi Gras!
I dares anyone to say no!
Leave well enough alone (snort, snort!)

And a roof over my head.

And I'm smart enough
To leave well enough alone!
Like a beam from above.

[Bluto]
Thou didst leave me broken hearted.

I'm Robin Hood from yonder wood with my little bow and arrow.
I hit with ease three out of threes, with my little bow and arrow.
I'm Little John, I've never gone on the road that's straight and narrow.
I get my pound of what's around with my little bow and arrow.
Two busy little men are we, giving our gold away!
We take from the wicked,
[Robin Hood]

The daring young man on the flyin' trapeze.

Like an old coat that is tattered and torn.
Left to fret in this wide world to fret and to mourn,
Betrayed by a maid in her tease!
I tried all I knew her to please!
Without any warning
She left me one morning
With the man on the flying trapeze!
Oh, he flies through the air with the greatest of ease,
This daring young man on the flying trapeze!
His movements are graceful, all girls he does please.
[Popeye]

He floats through the air with the greatest of ease,
The daring young man on the flyin' trapeze.
His movements are graceful; all girls he does please.

Ahoy, ahoy, ahoy!
In building boats, I knows me stuff.
I'm ninety-nine and plenty tough!
Ahoy, ahoy, ahoy!
Sail, sail, sail your boat, over the Spanish Main.
Where all the pirates sailed their ships and I hope they sail again!
Fifteen men on a dead man's chest,
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!
Drink and the devil have done for the rest,
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!
If you ain't the prettiest gal in town.
I'll lick any 'lubber who says you ain't.
And I says you got class.
I need but one good eye to see
That you are ship-shape lass.
I'm sure gonna like it with you around.
I live on an island on the back of a whale.
It's a whale of an island (that's not a bad joke);
Its lord and its master is this handsome bloke.
Sindbad the Sailor!
But talk about women--they all fall for me!
I take my adventures wherever they're found.
I don't mean to brag, folks, but I've been around.
Sindbad the Sailor!
I cleaned out those serpents with one dirty look!
He'd frighten King Kong, but he's only my stooge!
The capture of Oola for me was just fun;
Whoever said two heads was better than one!
Youse! Sindbads the Sailor!
Now there was a thrill I'd be sorry to miss!
He spread out his wings, and the sunlight grew dim.
He took me in his feet, but I ran off with him!
Sindbad the Sailor!
Sindbad the Sailor!
All I say is "Boo!" and my enemies run!
[Popeye]
It's Popeye the sailor man!
etc.
Cash in his hand, right off the whaler.
Standing alone,
Don't let him go.
He's a cinch
But every inch
A sailor!
Why am I so beautiful? Why do all the women envy me?
Can it be my face or these pretty feet of mine?
We aim to please!
It's our business to be at your service!
We aim to please!
Strawberry pineapple pie!
You don't have to go on a diet,
We always make sure that you're fed.
[Popeye]
Our hamburger steaks are a riot,
You'd better try liver instead.
'Cause, we aim to please!
It's our business to be at your service!
We aim to please!
Onions are beautiful things!
I'd do most anything you'd ask me to.
I'd go and get that pot of gold from the rainbow,
And bring it where you are,
And then I'd hitch your wagon to a star.
Hey, how'd you like to have your dreams come true?
I'd like to make you happy through and through.
'Deed I do!
So what can I do for you?
I'm on my way to Rio.
[Popeye]
To love and laughter, and soft guitars.
[Bluto]
It's always gay in Rio,
[Popeye]
With lovely ladies 'neath the stars.
Once there I'll sure try to be good.
[Bluto]
And I'll be good, so have no fear.
[Bluto and Popeye]
Tell all the girls in Rio
[Popeye]
That Popeye
[Bluto]
And Bluto
[Bluto and Popeye]
Are here.
With a hamburger, juicy and rare.
A hamburger lives for the pleasure it gives--
It's a thrill on the bill of fare.
A home and contentment beneath my vest.
There's nothing in the world that's so divine
As a hamburger, tender and fine.
I adore you, hamburger mine!
And can do anything in curls.
You gotta be a football hero,
To get along with the beautiful girls!
