Mr. Webster lyrics

by Tommy Boyce and Bobby Hart
Ev'ryone in town knew Mr. Webster;
He worked at the bank for forty years.
And each week Mr. Frizby made his check out
For sixty-eight dollars clear.
And thru the years he thwarted twenty-seven robberies
And each time Frizby promised him a raise.
They gave a retirement party for Mr. Webster
Everyone from the bank was there.
They had a cake and flowers ordered special
And Frizby had a speech prepared.
And a little white box that held a watch with this inscription
";To Mr. Webster, with regards.";
Then came the telegram from Mr. Webster
Said, ";Sorry...stop...Cannot attend..
I've flown away and taken all your money
Wish you were here to help me spend.";
And one by one all the people left the party
And Mr. Frizby locked the door.
