of MontrealAn Introduction for Isabell Lyrics
I'd like to introduce you now to Isabell Iam
Present owner of the Edward Iam Wax Museum
Daughter of the comedic duo Dorothy and Edward
Do you remember them?
They accomplished mild success on the stages of the vaudeville theatres in Blackpool and in London that was before the advent of Hollywood
Then vaudeville died and people stopped going to see them
So they took out a loan and built a big wax museum
Inside of an old abandoned vaudeville theatre
It was at about this time that Dorothy gave birth to their only child and named her Isabell
And from that day they were so happy and gay
Momma, Papa, and their sweet and thoughtful treasured fair-haired angel baby girl
Eventually, a half a century passes
We see Edward in a wheelchair, Dorothy in granny glasses
And Isabell the proud proprietor of the wax museum
Wax museum
Isabell, would you like to tell about the bell hidden inside your name?
Does it ring every time someone calls out Isabell?
Do you hear it when you run?
If it broke they'd yell out "Isa" instead of Isabell
Until you fixed your bell
