Town Meeting Lyrics

[JACK] There were object so peculiar They were not to be believed All around, things to tantalize my brain It's a world unlike anything I've ever seen And as hard as I try I can't seem to describe Like a most improbable dream But you must believe when I tell you this It's as real as my skull and it does exist Here, let me show you This is a thing called a present The whole thing starts with a box [DEVIL] A box? Is it steel? [WEREWOLF] Are there locks? [HARLEQUIN DEMON] Is it filled with a pox? [DEVIL, WEREWOLF, HARLEQUIN DEMON] A pox How delightful, a pox [JACK] If you pleae Just a box with bright-colored paper And the whole thing's topped with a bow [WITCHES] A bow? But why? How ugly What's in it? What's in it?
