The Old Bazaar in Cairo

Sandbags, windbags, camels with a hump

Fat girls, thin girls, some a little plump

Slave girls sold here, fifty bob a lump

In the old bazaar in Cairo

Brandy, shandy, beer without a froth

Braces, laces, a candle for the moth

Bet you'd look a smasher in an old loin cloth

In the old bazaar in Cairo

You can buy most any anything

Thin bulls, fat cows, a little bit of string

You can purchase anything you wish

A clock, a dish and something for your Auntie Nellie

Harem, scarem, what d'ya think of that?

Bare knees, striptease, dancing on the mat

Umpa! Umpa! That's enough of that

In the old bazaar in Cairo

Rice pud, very good, what's it all about?

Made it in a kettle and they couldn't get it out

Everybody took a turn to suck it through the spout

In the old bazaar in Cairo

Mamadan, Ramadan, everything in style

Genuine bedouin carpet with a pile

Funny little odds and ends floating down the Nile

From the old bazaar in Cairo

You can buy most any anything

Sheeps' eyes, sand pies, a watch without a spring

You can buy a pomegranate too

A water bag, a little bit of hokey pokey

Yashmaks, pontefracts, what a strange affair!

Dark girls, fair girls, some with ginger hair

The rest of this is funny but the censor cut it there

In the old bazaar in Cairo
