Groucho Marx sings duet with daughter Melinda: “The Mikado“

Groucho Marx and his daughter Melinda Marx sings “There Is Beauty In The Belly Of The Beast“ from Gilbert & Sullivan musical “The Mikado“. [KATISHA] There is beauty in the bellow of the blast There is grandeur in the growling of the gale There is eloquent outpouring When the lion is a-roaring And the tiger is a-lashing of his tail! [KO-KO] Yes, I like to see a tiger From the Congo or the Niger And especially when lashing of his tail! [KATISHA] Volcanoes have a splendour that is grim And earthquakes only terrify the dolts But to him who’s scientific There’s nothing that’s terrific In the falling of a flight of thunderbolts! [KO-KO] Yes, in spite of all my meekness If I have a little weakness It’s a passion for a flight of thunderbolts! [BOTH] If that is so Sing derry down derry! It’s evident, very Our tastes are one Away we’ll go And merrily marry Nor tardily tarry ’Til day is done! [KO-KO] There is beauty in extreme old age Do you fancy you are elderly enough? Information I’m requesting On a subject interesting: Is a maiden all the better when she’s tough? [KATISHA] Throughout this wide dominion It’s the general opinion That she’ll last a good deal longer when she’s tough [KO-KO] Are you old enough to marry, do you think? Won’t you wait till you are eighty in the shade? There’s a fascination frantic In a ruin that’s romantic; Do you think you are sufficiently decayed? [KATISHA] To the matter that you mention I have given some attention And I think I am sufficiently decayed [BOTH] If that is so Sing derry down derry! It’s evident, very Our tastes are one Away we’ll go And merrily marry Nor tardily tarry ’Til day is done! If that is so Sing derry down derry! It’s evident, very Our tastes are one Away we’ll go And merrily marry Nor tardily tarry ’Til day is done! Sing derry down derry! We’ll merrily marry Nor tardily tarry ’Til day is done! -- Retro Toons -- Watch all of your favorite shows, movies and cartoons from iconic brands like Flinstones, Felix the Cat, Popeye, The Three Stooges, Wacky and Packy, Gumby collection, Superman Original Series, and all-time movies like The Lucy Show, The Beverly Hillbillies, and more.
