(re-enter Herb (gloomily))
Herb
The race is over I've got the winner
My pockets are empty - may purse a skinner.
(He turns out trouser pockets)
(amazed) Why didn't Import Control win.
HerbImport Control! No, Gordon Huttor didn't give him.
Charlie
Help, I think I'm going to swoon!
If I'm not very careful I'll now myself down.
(to Herb) Well, tell us now who won the race
What's happened to this crazy place?
Social Security won the race!
I tell you it's going to set the town on fire!
You betcha!
Charlie
Social Security. Well it goes to show
You never, never, never know
I think before we go along
We'll sing the folks one final song.
