Betty Boop - I've got a pain in my sawdust

Recorded By Mae Questel the Betty Boop girl

Lyrics - A little bisque doll and a little rag doll And a dolly imported from France Were sitting one day on the shelf of the store / With a doll that could wind up and dance When all of a sudden, the shopkeeper heard / A scream that rang out thro' the store / And this was the plaint of the little bisque doll That made such an awful uproar I've got a pain in my sawdust That's what's the matter with me Something is wrong with my little inside I'm just as sick as can be Don't let me faint, someone get me a fan Someone else run for the medicine man Ev'ryone hurry as fast as you can I've got a pain in my sawdust

Verse 2: They took her away in a hospital van And the whole town was filled with the blues For ev'ryone thought it was quite an odd thing And the papers all printed the news The surgeons looked wise and they all shook their heads And asked her just where she was sick "I think it's 'appendi-sawdust'!", she exclaimed "And won't you please do something quick?" Oh, sad was the day for the little bisque doll For they cut all her stitches away and found the seat of the terrible ache "'Twas a delicate task," they all say For none of the surgeons had ever before Performed on a dolly's inside They tried to re-stuff her but didn't know how And this was her wail as she died Ive got a pain in my sawdust.....
