Charlie Chaplin |
Sticky sweets and little wooden benches |
Afternoons of pleasure, magic screen |
Kids around the world are brought together |
Sharing all the wonders to be seen |
|
Hollywood had come to entertain us |
Cheapest seats are in the balcony |
Movie queens and heroes brave and famous |
We're the golden kings of comedy |
|
Charlie Chaplin, he could make us laugh and he could make us cry |
Charlie Chaplin, never quite as clever as the other guy |
Charlie Chaplin, funny little hero of the matinee |
Charlie Chaplin, king of all the kings of comedy |
|
Charlie Chaplin, Charlie Chaplin |
|
Never quite the clever valentino |
He could walk a long and crooked mile |
Proving that a man could start at zero |
Lose the lot and leave us with a smile |
|
Hollywood, we thank you for our pleasure |
You've grown old, and sadly so must we |
But it seems the world will always treasure |
Charlie and the kings of comedy |
|
Charlie Chaplin, he could make us laugh and he could make us cry |
Charlie Chaplin, never quite as clever as the other guy |
Charlie Chaplin, funny little hero of the matinee |
Charlie Chaplin, king of all the kings of comedy |
|
Charlie Chaplin, Charlie Chaplin, Charlie Chaplin |
