Sit and hold tight, and you’ll go up right. But I won’t pro - mise how you’ll come down.

After Chorus First Verse.

[Chorus played piano during following Patter.^

Have you ever been up in a balloon ? It’s the highest form of sport.

It’s cheap enough, goodness knows. You can go a long way in a motor-busfor sixpence, but just compare it to my price : Elephant and Castle to the

moon for half-a-dollar. Of course you needn’t go all the way;

I can leave

you on the edge of the first cloud for a shilling and call for you comingback—if the wind blows me that way. The other day I was collecting the

fares ; as we were passing Astromene (that’s a star), one of the passengers

gave me a fiver to change. I said, “ Well, you have got a neck to think

I've got change for a fiver. I’m not the Mint,—what sauce." He said,

“ That’s all I’ve got.’’ I said, “ Then you had better go and get change,”

and threw him over the side. If people ivant to bounce with fivers, I say,

let ’em bounce.

It’s a jolly life, ballooning, though I don’t suppose anyone has more upsand downs in the world than I do.

Some people think there’s a man in the moon, I know there is ; I wasonly having a chat with him yesterday. He was saying what a glorious thing

it is to be off the earth with no taxes to pay. He said, “ Y^ou know, I’malways pleased to see you and your trippers. You bring up who you like,

but for heaven’s sake don’t bring Lloyd George 1

”

There’s only one risk you run by coming up in my balloon ; sometimes I

run short of ballast and then there’s nothing for it but to drop a couple of

pasengers overboard. Of course, as soon as they touch the eajth, they

come up again,—but not with me !

After Chorus Second Verse.

You don’t seem particularly anxious to come up in this balloon of mine.

Perhaps you’ll help me to sing about it. The words are not very striking,

but the “ air’s ” all right. Balloons want plenty of “ air.” Let us dissect

the words:“ Come up in my balloon, my balloon, MY balloon.”

You see, there’s not much doubt as to whose balloon it is.

“ Come up and see the moon, see the moon, see the MOON.”You see, three moons. I daresay some of you have seen three moonsbefore.—I have, many times,

“ We shall be starting soon and ”—well, you know the rest.

[To Conductor.^ There’s some little bits there that I would like you tobring out more.

[Sings."] Come up in my balloon, pom, pom, My balloon, pom, pom.D’yer see what I mean ?—very well, then, now, up she goes

!

Chorus.“ Come up in my balloon,

My balloon.

My balloon.”

-Wait a minute ! stop ! stop 1

[To Conductor.] I didn’t ask you to

game is,—you want to burst the balloon.

show off. I can see what yourJust take it again.

[During chorus this time, a "keeper from the asylum enters quietly, andassumes a pleased expression at having found his charge. He remains u^'

stage unobserved by singer. Taps and shakes his head significantly.]

[At the end of chorus, the following patter and business]

Not bad, but it’s not what I expected. I don’t believe you think I’ve gota balloon. We’ll soon settle that. {Chorus played here softly.)

[Shouts off:] Men, is ev’rything ready for the ascent? Good! Justunfasten her and bring her a bit this way.

[Tramping offset and scuffle off stage.] Steady, my lads, steady

!

[Walks to wing as though to asstaC] That’s it! now she’s moving.Steady, thaffs the idea.

[Struggles ae though helping to bring on something enormous, and, “iviih

a final effort, discloses to the audience a penny air-balloon. Takeschorus and, at the end, turns, and seeing the keeper, runs quickly of withthe balloon, followed by the keeper.]
