Crowds of people congregate below him,
On the sidewalks craning up their necks,
And Theodore is hanging by his fingers,
And below the crow is making bets.
The chestnut man is marching down,
to make a sale or two.
Followed by the ice cream vendor
Isn't it a pity what they'll drive a man to do?
And from such a nice hotel.
Theodore, they're watching you.
Must be nice to climb the social ladder,
To rise above the crowd to such degree.
And Theodore is clinging to the ledge now,
The absolute in high society.
The manager is quite upset,
he needs a drink or two.
But he can't——the rules, you know.
Isn't it a pity what they'll drive a man to do?
And from such a nice hotel.
Theodore, they're watching you.
As he swings above the crowds,
In the streets below the people point.
Please dear man decide your fate——the choice is yours.
Now don't you leave them dangling.
