Refrain :
Oh, oh, oli! I'm Bernard Page,
Amongst the ladies I'm all the rage;
On Sundays when I play,
I cannot understand why people stay away
The ladies love my carriage erect.
Because I am a man of intellect.
Oh, oh, oh! On any stage.
You'll never find a thriller like Bernard Page.

Tempwhitis :
Now I'm sublime,
A real live wire;
My name is Temple White-oh.
I beat the time
For the C.T. choir,

page 13

It is ray one delight-oh.
I teach, instruct,
Inspire, conduct,
Our noble. Choral Union;
Though their singing is divine,
The Orchestra's not too fine.

Refrain:
Oh, oh, oh! I'm Temple White,
To see me bow is a wonderful sight;
Tho' by nature I'm sedate,
I really get quite angry when reserved's come late;
By my chorus I am feared
That's because of my fine black beard.
Oh, oh, oh! It's my delight,
There never was a man like Temple White.
