Marcel's Songtext
von Herman’s Hermits

Marcel lives in Woolwich
The ducks I view is surfing
Marcel′s got a house on the Thames
There's grotesque aggravations
Eccentric demonstrations
Ah, let′s go down to Marcel's on the Thames

Knock, knock, sesame it's open
It′s Alice in Wonderland
Marcel, Marcel
Coming, coming ′round
Coming see 'em run away
Coming, coming ′round
It's such a groovy day
Marcel, Marcel


You meet the oddest creatures
With unfamiliar features
Greeks and Turks with clerks and liberties
Men with long eyelashes
And ladies with mustaches
On Marcel′s creaking house
That's on the Thames

Knock, knock, sesame it′s open
It's Alice in Wonderland
Marcel, Marcel
Coming, coming 'round
Coming see ′em run away
Coming, coming ′round
It's such a groovy day
Marcel, Marcel

Gusto′s worth the giving
A kind of man you're living
Ah, let′s go down to Marcel's on the Thames
Let′s go down to Marcel's on the Thames.
