Wisemen:
Oh no! What we gonna do?
The king likes Daniel
More than me and you!
Oh, no! What we gonna do?
We gotta get him out of here.
(repeat)
Wiseman#1:
We could throw him in the dungeon,
We could let him rot in jail,
We could drag him to the ocean
Or have him eaten by a whale.
Wiseman#3:
We could throw him in the Tigris.
Let him float a while
Then we'll all sit back and watch him
Meet a hungry crocodile
We could put him on a camel's back
And send him of to Ur
With a cowboy hat without a brim
A boot without a spur
We could give him jelly doughnuts
Take them all away
Or fill his ears with cheese balls
And his nostrils with sorbet
We could use him as a footstool
Or a table to play Scrabble on
Then tie him up and beat him up
And throw him out of Babylon
Wiseman#2
Or....(whispers)
Wiseman#1:
I like it!
Wiseman#3:
It's sneaky!
Wiseman#1:
And it just...
Wiseman #3:
Might...
Wiseman#2:
Work!
Wisemen:
We could use him as a footstool
Or a table to play Scrabble on
Then tie him up and beat him up
And throw him out of Babylon!
