[00:13.08]Uncle Gutenberg was a bookworm
[00:15.86]And he lived on Charing 'Cross
[00:17.86]The memory of his volumes brings a smile
[00:22.16]He would read me lots of stories
[00:24.70]When he wasn't on the sauce
[00:27.15]Now I'd like to share the wisdom
[00:29.58]Of my favourite bibliophile
[00:33.66]He said a-
[00:38.69]Cover is not the book
[00:40.09]So open it up and take a look
[00:42.00]'Cause under the covers one discovers
[00:44.09]That the king may be a crook
[00:45.97]Chapter titles are like signs
[00:48.04]And if you read between the lines
[00:50.02]You'll find your first impression was mistook
[00:53.95]For a cover is nice
[00:55.39]But a cover is not the book
[00:56.77]Ta-ru-ra-lee ta-ra-ta-ta-ta
[00:58.77]Ta-ru-ra-lee ta-ra-ta-ta-ta
[01:00.91]Mary Poppins could you give us an example
[01:03.06]Certainly
[01:06.40]Nellie Rubina was made of wood
[01:08.00]But what could not be seen was though
[01:10.05]Her trunk up top was barren
[01:11.55]Well her roots were lush and green
[01:13.64]So in Spring when Mr Hickory
[01:15.61]Saw her blossoms blooming there
[01:17.56]He took root despite her bark
[01:19.47]And now there's seedlings everywhere
[01:21.72]Which proves
[01:22.70]A cover is not the book
[01:24.60]So open it up and take a look
[01:26.57]'Cause under the covers one discovers
[01:28.53]That the king may be a crook
[01:30.46]Chapter titles are like signs
[01:32.52]And if you read between the lines
[01:34.53]You'll find your first impression was mistook
[01:38.43]For a cover is nice
[01:39.65]But a cover is not the book
[01:42.40]Should we do the one about the wealthy widow
[01:44.33]Oh by all means
[01:45.59]Always loved that one
[01:46.63]Well go on then
[01:48.26]Lady Hyacinth Macaw
[01:50.08]Brought all her treasures to a reef
[01:52.45]Where she only wore a smile
[01:54.13]Plus two feathers and a leaf
[01:56.57]So no one tried to rob her
[01:58.23]'Cause she barely wore a stitch
[02:00.12]For when you're in your birthday suit
[02:01.89]There ain't much there to show you're rich
[02:03.95]Oh a cover is not the book
[02:05.85]So open it up and take a look
[02:07.90]'Cause under the covers one discovers
[02:09.83]That the king maybe a crook
[02:11.74]Ta-ru-ra-lee ta-ru-ra-la
[02:13.76]Ta-ru-ra-lee ta-ra-ta-ta
[02:16.13]You'll find your first impression was mistook
[02:18.72]Ya-da-da-da
[02:19.83]For a cover is nice
[02:21.12]But a cover is not the book
[02:23.79]Oh give us the one about the dirty rascal
[02:25.59]Why don't ya
[02:26.45]Isn't that one a bit long
[02:27.64]Well the quicker you're into it
[02:28.56]The quicker you're out of it
[02:35.12]Once upon a time
[02:35.91]In a nursery rhyme
[02:37.01]There was a castle with a king
[02:38.27]Hiding in a wing
[02:39.14]'Cause he never went to school
[02:40.48]To learn a single thing
[02:41.66]He had scepters and swords
[02:43.17]And a parliament of lords
[02:44.25]But on the inside he was sad
[02:45.52]Egad
[02:45.93]Because he never had a wisdom for numbers
[02:47.92]A wisdom for words
[02:49.09]Though his crown was quite immense
[02:50.18]His brain was smaller than a bird's
[02:51.44]So the queen of the nation
[02:52.64]Made a royal proclamation
[02:53.80]To the Missus and the Messers
[02:55.08]The more or lessers
[02:56.02]Bring me all the land's professors
[02:57.50]Then she went to the hair dressers
[02:58.66]And they came from the east
[02:59.83]And they came from the south
[03:01.04]From each college they poured knowledge
[03:02.31]From their brains into his mouth
[03:03.47]But the king couldn't learn
[03:04.52]So each professor met their fate
[03:05.70]For the queen had their heads removed
[03:07.07]And placed upon the gate
[03:08.16]And on that date
[03:10.05]I state their wives all got a note
[03:11.30]Their mate was now the late-great
[03:12.54]But then suddenly one day
[03:13.37]A stranger started in to sing
[03:14.88]He said I'm the dirty rascal
[03:15.96]And I'm here to teach the king
[03:17.23]And the queen clutched her jewels
[03:18.48]For she hated royal fools
[03:19.72]But this fool had some rules
[03:20.89]They really ought to teach in schools
[03:22.03]Like you'll be a happy king
[03:23.18]If you enjoy the things you've got
[03:24.31]You should never try to be
[03:25.33]The kind of person that you're not
[03:26.73]So they sang and they laughed
[03:27.86]For the king had found a friend
[03:29.12]And they ran onto a rainbow for
[03:30.49]The story's perfect end
[03:31.59]So the moral is you musn't let
[03:32.79]The outside be the guide
[03:33.94]For it's not so cut and dried
[03:35.14]Well unless it's Dr Jekyll
[03:36.34]Then you better hide petrified
[03:39.05]No the truth can't be denied
[03:40.16]As I now have testified
[03:41.35]All that really counts and matters
[03:42.84]Is the special stuff inside
[03:46.82]He did it
[03:49.64]Oh a cover is not the book
[03:51.41]So open it up and take a look
[03:53.45]'Cause under the covers one discovers
[03:55.53]That the king may be a crook
[03:57.52]So please listen to what we've said
[03:59.58]And open a book tonight in bed
[04:01.84]So one more time before we get the hook
[04:04.56]Sing it out strong
[04:05.96]A cover is nice
[04:07.12]Please take our advice
[04:08.09]A cover is nice
[04:08.99]Or you'll pay the price
[04:09.98]A cover is nice
[04:11.00]But a cover is not the book
[04:12.68]Ta-ru-ra-lee ta-ru-ra-la-la
[04:14.84]Ta-ru-ra-lee ta-ru-ra-la-la
[04:16.72]Ta-ru-ra-lee ta-ru-ra-la-la la la
