Wisemen: Oh, no! What we gonna do?

The king likes Daniel more than me and you.

Oh, no! What we gonna do?

We've gotta get him outta here.

Oh, no! What we gonna do?

The king likes Daniel more than me and you.

Oh, no! What we gonna do?

We've gotta get him outta here.



Wisemen #2 and #3: We could throw him in the dungeon

We could let him rot in jail.

We could drag him to the ocean

Have him eaten by a whale.



Wiseman #1: We could throw him in the Tigris

Let him float awhile,

Then we'll all sit back and watch him meet

A hungry crocodile

We could put him on a camel's back

And send him off to Ur

With a cowboy hat without a brim

A boot without a spur.



We could give him jelly doughnuts,

Take them all away

Or we could fill his ears with cheese balls

And his nostils with sorbet

We could use him as a footstool

Or a table to play Scrabble on

Then tie him up and beat him up

And throw him out of Babylon!



Wiseman #3: Or! [whispering]



Wiseman #1: I like it!



Wiseman #2: It's sneaky!



Wiseman #1: And it just...



Wiseman #2: might...



Wiseman #3: work!



Wisemen: We could use him as a footstool

Or a table to play Scrabble on

Then tie him up and beat him up

And throw him out of Babylon!
