Paroles de la chanson The Wise Men At The Manger:

Holy music]

BABY BRIAN COHEN:

WISE MAN #1: Ahem

MANDY COHEN: Ohhh!

Who are you?

WISE MAN #1: We are three wise men

MANDY: What?!

WISE MAN #1: We are three wise men

MANDY: Well, what are you doing creeping around a cow

Shed at two o’clock in the morning?

That doesn’t sound

Very wise to me

WISE MAN #3: We are astrologers

WISE MAN #1: We have come from the East

MANDY: Is this some kind of joke?

WISE MAN #2: We wish to praise the infant

WISE MAN #1: We must pay homage to him

MANDY: Homage?

You’re all drunk.

It’s disgusting.

Out!

The lot, out!

WISE MAN #1: No--

MANDY: Bursting in here with tales about oriental

Fortune tellers.

Come on.

Out!

WISE MAN #2: No, no.

We must see him

MANDY: Go and praise someone else’s brat!

Go on!

WISE MAN #2: We--

WISE MAN #1: We were led by a star

MANDY: Or led by a bottle, more like.

Go on.

Out!

WISE MAN #1: Well-- well, we must see him.

We have

Brought presents

MANDY: Out!

WISE MAN #2: Gold.

Frankincense.

Myrrh

Sorry the place is a bit of a mess.

Well, what is

Myrrh, anyway?

WISE MAN #3: It is a valuable balm

MANDY: A balm?

What are you giving him a balm for?

It

Might bite him

WISE MAN #3: What?

MANDY: That’s a dangerous animal.

Quick!

Throw it in

The trough

WISE MAN #1: No, it isn’t

MANDY: Yes, it is.

It’s great, big mmm…

WISE MAN #3: No, no, no.

It is an ointment

MANDY: Aww, there is an animal called a balm,… or did

I dream it?

So, you’re astrologers, are you?

Well, what

Is he then?

WISE MAN #2: Hmm?

MANDY: What star sign is he?

WISE MAN #2: Uh, Capricorn

MANDY: Uhh, Capricorn, eh?

What are they like?

WISE MAN #2: Ooh, but… he is the son of God, our

Messiah

WISE MAN #1: King of the Jews

MANDY: And that’s Capricorn, is it?

WISE MAN #2: Uh, no, no, no.

That’s just him

MANDY: Ohh, I was going to say, 'Otherwise, there’d be

A lot of them.'

WISE MAN #1: By what name are you calling him?

MANDY: Uh, 'Brian'

WISE MEN: We worship you, O Brian, who are Lord over us

All.

Praise unto you, Brian, and to the Lord, our

Father.

Amen

MANDY: Do you do a lot of this, then?

WISE MAN #2: What?

MANDY: This praising

WISE MAN #2: No, no.

No, no

MANDY: Er, well, um, if you’re dropping by again, do

Pop in. Heh.

And thanks a lot for the gold and

Frankincense, er, but don’t worry too much about the

Myrrh next time.

All right?

Heh.

Thank you.

Good-bye

Well, weren’t they nice?

Hmm.

Out of their bloody

Minds, but still
