of Montreal - An Introduction for Isabell lyrics
[of Montreal - An Introduction for Isabell lyrics]
I'd like to introduce you now to Isabell Iam
Present owner of the Edward Iam Wax Museum
Daughter of the comedic duo
Dorothy and Edward
Do you remember them?
They accomplished mild success on the stages
Of the vaudeville theatres in
Blackpool and in London that was
Before the advent of Hollywood
Then vaudeville died and people stopped
Going to see them
So they took out a loan and
Built a big wax museum
Inside of an old abandoned vaudeville theatre
It was at about this time
That Dorothy gave birth
To their only child and named her Isabell
And from that day they were so happy and gay
Momma, Papa
And their sweet and thoughtful treasured
Fair haired angel baby girl
Eventually, a half a century passes
We see Edward in a wheelchair
Dorothy in granny glasses
And Isabell the proud proprietor
Of the wax museum wax museum
Isabell, would you like to tell about
The bell hidden inside your name?
Does it ring every time
Someone calls out Isabell?
Do you hear it when you run?
If it broke they'd yell out
"Isa" instead of Isabell
Until you fixed your bell
Present owner of the Edward Iam Wax Museum
Daughter of the comedic duo
Dorothy and Edward
Do you remember them?
They accomplished mild success on the stages
Of the vaudeville theatres in
Blackpool and in London that was
Before the advent of Hollywood
Then vaudeville died and people stopped
Going to see them
So they took out a loan and
Built a big wax museum
Inside of an old abandoned vaudeville theatre
It was at about this time
That Dorothy gave birth
To their only child and named her Isabell
And from that day they were so happy and gay
Momma, Papa
And their sweet and thoughtful treasured
Fair haired angel baby girl
Eventually, a half a century passes
We see Edward in a wheelchair
Dorothy in granny glasses
And Isabell the proud proprietor
Of the wax museum wax museum
Isabell, would you like to tell about
The bell hidden inside your name?
Does it ring every time
Someone calls out Isabell?
Do you hear it when you run?
If it broke they'd yell out

Until you fixed your bell
