By Jingo ...did someone mention Camels ???

You've heard of Ali Baba
40 thieves had he
Out for what we all want
Lots of LSD
He also had a camel
Stole it from a zoo
How he loved the camel
And the camel loved him too

Oh how the camel loved Ali Baba

Ali Baba's camel
Had run for miles and miles
His tail was pointing backwards
That's how a camel smiles

But Ali and his camel
They were both out of breath
They'd run so far, and laughed
so much,
They laughed themselves to
death.

Gather round the camp fire
Sing a roundelay
But don't sing out of tune
though
Eggs are cheap today
Sing of Ali Baba
Sing about his men
Sing about his camel and then
Sing it all again.

Ali Baba's camel
Loved Ali Baba so
No matter where he went to
The camel had to go
Some say that he's in heaven
But this I know so well
Where ever you think Ali's
gone
His camel's gone there too

One of Neil Innes' gems I believe.
