"Willie Whippleton"

I am Will (thank you), I am Will (thank you),
I am Willie Whippleton,
I am head of the Citizens' Party here,
And Mayor of old Slumdon.
I am sure, I am sure, that I soon will be Lord Mayor,
With a chain round my neck and an ermine wrap,
And a non-commital air.
All these fine Councillors, they obey me without pause.
Why do they obey? I guess that they obey because
I obey, I obey, all the hints that I receive,
Especially when given by Chambers of Horrors,
Whether for better or whether for worse,
They suit me O.K.; so that's why I obey.
