There Once Was A Man

[Melvin]
There once was a man
A very rich man
He had a lot of sheep
He had a lot of land
He threw a lot of parties
He was dapper, he was tan
Yes, there once was a rich man

[King George]
Okay, great story. I'll, uh, see you next time--

[Melvin]
Wait just a minute
My story isn't done
It's about two men
And I've only mentioned one

[King George]
Oh

[Melvin]
There once was a man
A very poor man
He had next to nothing
Just a little lamb
But he loved it like a son
And he fed it from his hand
Yes, there once was a very poor man
Then one day
There was a guest at the house of the rich man
What did he do
Have you guessed
To feed the guest of the rich man?

[King George]
Well, let's see, he had plenty of sheep, so, he can just share one of his sheep. Not a problem!

[Melvin]
He took the lamb of the poor man
He took the lamb of the poor man
The rich man took
To feed his guest
The very, very poor man's lamb

[King George]
Wha--? Is that a-- Is this a true story?!

[Melvin]
As surely as I stand before you today, my story is true

[King George]
Who is that man?! Tell me! To take the lamb of the poor man! Why, he had lots of sheep, but the poor man only had one! Man! For his cruelty, he will spend the rest of his days locked in my dungeon! Who is he?

[Melvin]
Oh, King George, you are that man!
