Jolly Times

These lyrics are from ’The Codfish Ball’ by Lew Pollack and Sidney Mitchell, written for the 1936 20th Century-Fox film, “Captain January”.  It starred Shirley Temple, supported by Buddy Ebsen. To see a nifty film clip, look it up on YouTube or on Google.

Further lyrics go:

Lobsters dancing in a row, Shuffle off to Buffalo, Jelly fish sway to and fro, at the Codfish Ball, etc.

How can a Rhino resist??!?
