[Wisemen]
Oh, no! What we gonna do? The king likes Daniel more than me and you
Oh, no! What we gonna do? We gotta get him out of here
Oh, no! What we gonna do? The king likes Daniel more than me and you
Oh, no! What we gonna do? We gotta get him out of here

[Wisemen #2 and #3]
We could throw him in the dungeon (Oh, no! What we gonna do? The king likes Daniel more than me and you)
We could let him rot in jail (Oh, no! What we gonna do? We gotta get him out of here)
We could drag him to the ocean (Oh, no! What we gonna do? The king likes Daniel more than me and you)
Have him eaten by a whale (Oh, no! What we gonna do? We gotta get him out of here)

[Wiseman #1]
We could throw him in the Tigris, let him float a while (We could throw him in the dungeon)
Then we'll all sit back and watch him meet a hungry crocodile
We could put him on a camel's back and send him off to Ur (We could let him rot in jail)
With a cowboy hat without a brim, a boot without a spur
We could give him jelly doughnuts, take 'em all away (We could drag him to the ocean)
Or we could fill his ears with cheese balls and his nostrils with sorbet
We could use him as a footstool or a table to play Scrabble on (Have him eaten by a whale)
Then tie him up and beat him up and throw him out of Babylon

[Wiseman #2, spoken]
Or

[Wiseman #1, spoken]
Yeah, mhm, oh
I like it
[Wiseman #2, spoken]
It's sneaky

[Wiseman #1, spoken]
And it just...

[Wiseman #3, spoken]
Might...

[Wiseman #2, spoken]
Work!

[Wisemen]
We could use him as a footstool or a table to play Scrabble on
Then tie him up and beat him up and throw him out of Babylon

[Narrator, spoken]
The very next morning, the wise men appeared before King Darius to try to trap Daniel with their scheme

[King Darius, spoken]
You wanted to see me?

[Wiseman #1, spoken]
