Ali-baba's Camel Lyrics - Tadpoles - Bonzo Dog Band

You've heard of Ali Baba, forty thieves had he 

Out for what we all want, lots of L.S.D. 

He also had a camel, stole it from a zoo 

How he loved the camel, and the camel loved him too 

(Oh, how the how the camel loved Ali Bar Bar!) 

 

Ali Baba's camel loved Ali Baba so 

No matter where he went to, the camel had to go 

Some say that he's in Heaven, but this I know is true 

Wherever you think Ali has gone, his camel's gone there too 

 

Crossing the Equator, oooo, how hot it was 

Poor old Ali Baba cursed and swore, because 

He was so very thirsty, and everybody knows 

It's horrible to walk for miles with sand between your toes 

(Oh, how the camel loved Ali Baba... brrrrr!) 

 

Ali Baba's camel turned round and licked his hand 

He said, "Oh, Ali Baba, I surely understand 

We must find an oasis and get a drink somehow 

But, hark! I hear the temple bells, they'll all be open now" 

(Bleah bleah. Glorious beer, fills you right up with it... aaahh) 

 

They entered for the races at the desert sports 

There goes Ali's camel in his filthy cotton shorts 

The starter cracked his pistol, off the camel's hared 

Ali Baba's camel wins by half a camel's hair 

(Hey Ali Baba! Hey Ali Baba!) 

(Your camel loves you! Your camel loves you!) 

 

Ali Baba's camel had run for miles and miles 

His tail was pointing backwards, that's how a camel smiles 

But Ali and his camel, they both were out of breath 

They'd run so far, they laughed so much 

They laughed themselves to death 

[Sounds of crying and wailing) 

 

Oh! Gather round the campfire! Sing a roundelay! 

But don't sing out of tune, though 

('Cause eggs are cheap today!) 

Sing of Ali Baba, sing about his men 

Sing about his camel, and then sing it all again 

(Oh, how the camel loved Ali Baba) 

 

Ali Baba's camel loved Ali Baba so 

No matter where he went to, that camel had to go 

Some say that he's in Heaven, but this I know as well 

Wherever you think Ali has gone, his camel's gone to..... 

 

(Hey, give us a tune there, Jock......Ya-hoo!) 

(Piano plays "Knees Up Mother Brown" to end)
