Everyone in town knew Mr. Webster,
He worked at the bank for forty years,
And each week Mr. Frisby made his check out
For sixty-eight dollars, clear.
And through the years he thwarted twenty-seven robberies,
Each time Frisby promised him a raise.
They gave a retirement party for Mr. Webster,
Everyone from the bank was there,
They had a cake and flowers ordered special,
And Frisby had a speech prepared.
And a little white box that held a watch with this inscription:
`To Mr. Webster, With Regards`.
Then came the telegram from Mr. Webster,
Said, `Sorry, STOP, Cannot attend,
I`ve flown away and taken all your money,
Wish you were here to help me spend.`
And one by one all the people left the party,
And Mr. Frisby locked the door.
