Outfox The Fox

Only the sharpest eyes, The Keenest nose
The quickest ears, fleetest toes
Can ever outfox the Fox
(The men echo, «Can ever outfox the Fox»)
Only the stoutest arm, the bravest heart,
With a magic charm and a good head start
Will ever outfox the Fox
(Will ever outfox the Fox)
Those who try to tangle with my daring do Wind up at the angle that herring do
(They hold their head
like every dead herring do)
Only the sprightliest sprite, the nimblest elf,
The wickedest old witch or the devil himself
can ever outfox the Fox
(Can ever outfox the fox)
Whenever they try to find me They find me where I am not
I’m hither and yond, I’m there and gone,
I’m Johnny-not-on-the spot!
(He whistle as he jump to a low tree branch)
I’m out on a limb they think!
(He whistles again, jumping down)
I’m down on the ground in a wink
My enemies say «Gadzooks! It’s spooks!»
Shivering in their socks
They know that they’ll never, I’m far to clever
They’ll never outfox the Fox!
The Fox, There’s only one of me Till suddenly there’s two of me When two is what you see of me Gadzooks! Three of me That’s the proper score of me Three of us is the core of me And we can tell you-
Woops! Sorry, four of me Fa la la!
There’s one of me, two of me, three of me,
four of me, five six seven
Sorry, no more of me Each as strong as ten are we Very stout hearted men are we We’re off to fight all wrong
And we’ll right it Right or wrong
I’m hither and yond, I’m there and gone,
I’m Johnny-not-on-the spot!
Only the sharpest eye, the keenest nose,
the quickest ear and the fleetest toes
Can ever outfox the Fox
Can ever outfox, can ever outfox,
can ever outfox, can ever outfox the Fox
Anyone of us can be at anytime the Fox
But I tell you confidentially that I’m the Fox
No I’m no I’m no I’m no I’m no I’m the Fox
Well I’m the Fox
No I’m the Fox
Is he the Fox?
No me the Fox
If he’s the one,
Then who’s this Fox?
Aren’t you the Fox?
Now who’s the Fox?
Because no matter who’s the Fox
There’ll never never never never
never never never
never never never never never outfox the Fox
never outfox the Fox
never outfox the Fox
never outfox the…
never outfox the Fox
