The Clippard Express!

(Adapted from the song "The Polar Express")



All aboard! All aboard!
Tickets please, tickets

Cicerone named Fenny is waiting . . .
Welcome to The Clippard Express!


It’s a magic Benz-van on a rail
Never takes a rest
Flying through Shanghai old-street and the museum
Ride for a small fee and join the fun
Eddie, Julie, Tim, Corliss, Scott, Gordon, Melanie & Montira said yes!
Cause that’s the way things happen
On the Clippard Express... You bet!


Beep Beep the van horn blows
That’s the sound of her singing
Ding ding the bell will ring
Golly look at her go... to the French Concession - yo!


You wonder if we’ll get there soon
Anybody’s guess...
Dragonfly massage at 19:00 (3/13)
Cause that’s the way things happen
On the Clippard Express

When we eat Shanghai cuisine lunch we’ll scream “Yes!” (Yeah)
We’ll arrive with a bang bang bang
Gan bay, gan bay, gan bay
Laughing all the way!


It’s a choo choo with a stunning view
That rivals all the best
But you won’t see it advertised
It’s a simple fact we stay on track
To Shanghai Oriental Art Center
But that can only happen on the Clippard Express


Hiss hiss Corliss is piss
That’s the sound of Tim snoring
Clang clang Julie gets bang
What a wonderful trip!


With a comfy seat and lots to eat (BYOS)
Boy is this the best!
Wish it wouldn’t ever have to end
With a little luck we’ll be on time (hotel lobby at 9:00 am sharp)
There’s no need to stress
Cause that’s the way things happen On the Clippard Express

Lights are gleaming far across the crowd
You’re not dreaming
May I present the Xin Tian Di!
If it’s Grumpy, the Pig, you expect to view
You surely haven’t guessed
He live down at the other end


With a little luck we’ll be on time
There’s no need to stress
Shopping at Xiangyang market artificial famous brands
Cause that’s the way things happen
On the roller coaster Clippard Express!


Next stop perhaps the tailor
ahhh ahh that is not a toy crazy old man
(Fhong Lao Tho - Gordon)
That's not a toy!
Take your seats please
Take your seats ...

And enjoy the journey on the Clippard Express!
