Giles, Giles & Fripp Elephant Song Lyrics

"Very, very nice," said a man in the crowd,
As the elephant jumped through a hoop.
"Who asked you?" the elephant cried
As he stooped and took a bow.
"Well, it's not every day you see something like that,
And I thought it was jolly good."
"How do you know," the elephant said,
"You're a man, and a fat one at that."

"Very, very nice," said a man in the crowd,
When the golden voice appeared.
She was gold alright, but then so is rust.
"Such a shame about the beard."
"How dare you say things like that," it said,
"You ought to be ashamed." -- he was.
"But I thought your voice was pretty good,
And that beard is good for a goat."

Very, very nice," said the same man in the crowd,
The one the elephant said was fat.
"(?)all nyet," someone said, with words,
And I looked 'round with eyes.
Hello, it's the peanut bride goosing the aisle,
Her leather back towards the orchestra.
"What d'you want, love," she said to a man,
"A four-penny, please, and a six-penny bag."

"Very, very nice," said a man in the crowd
As they smelled his peanut teeth.
"Would you like some?" I said, "Yes, please,"
We all had one tooth each.
By now of course, the second half had started,
"Let's all warm our hands," said aloud.
"My feet aren't cold, (?) of the sheepskin gloves,"
"Ah, but we're burning all the artists."

I know a man and his name is George.
A man and his name is George I know.
And his name is George, I know a man.
Is George I know a man and his name?
