[scylla]
oh, mr charybdis

[hector]
oh yes, mr scylla?

[scylla]
how’s that brand new yacht you’ve got?

[hector]
how goes your villa?

[scylla]
oh, the upkeep keeps me down
and i’m moving back to town

[hector]
and his wife’s still wearing last year’s old chinchilla

[scylla]
ooh!
hey, mr charybdis

[hector]
oh yes, good friend scylla?
[scylla]
have you cornered the hemp market in manila?

[hector]
i did corner it, old sport
but i had to sell it short

[scylla]
positively, mister charybdis?

[hector]
absolutely, mister scylla
oh!

[scylla]
hey!
he pretends he sold hemp short
so as not to let the rest in
if you are the clever sort
hemp’s the thing you will invest in

[crowd]
hurry, hurry
buy it, sell it
hurry, hurry
buy it now
[boys]
we would like to buy some shares
but we lack the dough to dash in

[ajax]
if we pool our railroad fares
and those bets we won, we’ll cash in

[crowd]
hurry, hurry
buy it, sell it
hurry, hurry
sell it now

[boys]
if we lose our railroad fares
getting home will be a nuisance

[ajax]
if we win, we’re millionaires
by investing just a few cents

[crowd]
hurry, hurry
buy it, sell it
hurry, hurry
buy it now
hurry, hurry
buy it, sell it
hurry, hurry
sell it now
[boys]
one-quarter, half
three-quarters, wow
we think you ought
to sell it now

[ajax]
rising hemp will turn the trick
and this is where we get rich quick

[scylla]
oh, mr charybdis

[hector]
oh yes, mr scylla?

[scylla]
how’d your big game hunting go?

[hector]
got one gorilla

[scylla]
bought a vineyard up in maine
that makes passable champagne

[hector]
though his ulcers keep him down to sarsaparilla

[scylla]
excuse me, charybdis

[hector]
oh yes, good friend scylla?

[scylla]
speaking of manila hemp

[hector]
you mean vanilla?
i just swept the market clean
of that sweet vanilla bean

[scylla]
hemp’s a bust then, mr charybdis?

[hector]
it’s a wash out, mr scylla

[boys]
poor ajax
