[Verse 1]
Everyone in town knew Mr. Webster
He worked at the bank for forty years
And each week Mr. Frisby made his check out
For sixty-eight dollars clear

[Chorus 1]
And through the years he thwarted twenty-seven robberies
Each time, Frisby promised him a raise

[Verse 2]
They gave a retirement party for Mr. Webster
Everyone from the bank was there
They had a cake and flowers ordered special
And Frisby had a speech prepared

[Chorus 2]
And a little white box that held a watch with this inscription
"To Mr. Webster, with regards"

[Verse 3]
Then came the telegram from Mr. Webster
Said, "Sorry - stop - cannot attend
I've flown away and taken all your money
Wish you were here to help me spend"
[Chorus 3]
And one by one all the people left the party
And Mr. Frisby locked the door
