Wisemen: Oh no! What we gonna do?
The king likes Daniel
More than me and you
Oh, no! What we gonna do?
We gotta get him out of here.
(Repeat)
Wiseman#1: 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#3: We could throw him in the Tigris
Let him float a while
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 fill his ears with cheese balls
And his nostrils 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#2: Or....(whispers)
Wiseman#1: I like it!
Wiseman#3: It's sneaky!
Wisman#1: And it just...
Wiseman #3: Might...
Wisman#2: 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!
