It's Alka Seltzer Time, Alka Seltzer Time.
Morning, noon, and night, it's Alka Seltzer Time.
I'm Kurt.
I'm Martha.
And here we go with the Alka Seltzer Show.
We thought we'd like to go to Constantinople, but the airline just said no to Constantinople.
They didn't say the planes were full.
No they didn't say the planes were full.
They sold us tickets.
Sold us tickets.
Tickets to Istanbul.
Why?
Istanbul was Constantinople.
Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople.
Been a long time gone, old Constantinople.
Still there's Turkish delight on a moonlit night.
Well every gal in Constantinople lives in Istanbul, not Constantinople.
So if you've a date in Constantinople, she'll be waiting in Istanbul.
Even old New York was once New Amsterdam.
Why they changed it, I can't say.
People just like it better that way.
So take me back to Constantinople.
No you can't go back to Constantinople.
Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople.
Why did Constantinople get the works?
That's nobody's business.
But Calipetra and Nuska, Dara and all the other Turks.
So now you know children, the capital of Turkey is Istanbul.
Now don't forget that.
Oh, oh I won't forget it teacher.
That's easy to remember.
That was our star student Martha Tilton, queuing in her own song.
A fine old Rodgers and Hart favorite that's never been forgotten.
Well, because it's easy to remember.
Martha?
Your sweet expression, the smile you gave me, the way you looked when we met.
It's easy to remember, but so hard to forget.
I hear you whisper, I'll always love you.
I know it's over and yet, it's easy to remember, but so hard to forget.
Though I must dream to have your hand caress me, fingers press me tight.
I'd rather dream than have that lonely feeling, stealing through the night.
Each little moment is clear before me and though it brings me regret, it's easy to
remember and so hard to forget.

Well Martha, once again the songwriters have turned to their old reliable source of inspiration,
the moon.
And the result of course is a new moon tune.
We turned it into a Massey, Tilton, Twosome plus three.
Jack, Frank and Country.
And here it is.
I See the Moon.
I see the moon, I see the moon, I see the moon and the moon sees me.
I see the moon, the moon sees me, down through the leaves of the old oak tree.
Please let the light that shines on me, shine on the one I love.
Over the mountain, over the sea, back where my heart is longing to be.
Please let the light that shines on me, shine on the one I love.
I hear the lark, the lark hears me, singing a song with a memory.
Please let the lark that sings to me, sing to the one I love.
Over the mountain, over the sea, back where my heart is longing to be.
Please let the lark that sings to me, sing to the one I love.
Over the mountain, over the sea, back where my heart is longing to be.
Please let the light that shines on me, shine on the one I love.
Let's see.
That makes two duets today and I sang one alone.
You seemed all the company one solo, Kurt, please remit promptly.
Yes, ma'am.
Well, friends, it's several weeks till Thanksgiving, but it's never too early to stop and think
and count your blessings.
When it seems as though the world has turned you down, don't feel sorry for yourself or
wear a frown.
Just be grateful for whatever comes your way.
Count your blessings one by one every day.
Don't begrudge another man, his luck, our wealth, just because you're not as fortunate
yourself.
All you need is faith and things will come your way.
Count your blessings one by one every day.
Life is filled with many treasures you can share.
Look around you, you'll find them everywhere.
Leave the fears that you may harbor far behind.
Face the future with a greater peace of mind.
Just believe and you'll be thankful, you can say.
Count your blessings one by one every day.
Are you ready to string a medley together, Kurt?
Just say when, Martha.
When as in, when you're smiling, when you're smiling, the whole world smiles with you.
My turn to say when?
Yep.
Okay.
When my sugar walks down the street, all the little birdies go tweet, tweet, tweet.
Well, let's get Country Washburn in on this.
Say when, Country.
He said it with his tuba.
I know the when he means when Yuba plays the tuba down in Cuba.
Good.
Down in Havana, there's a funny looking booba.
He plays the rumba on the tuba down in Cuba.
Oh, and he's talking, selling apple, but this chap would rather grapple with his zoop-oom-poom-pa.
They prefer it to the boopa-doopa-doopa.
They love the rumba on the tuba down in Cuba.
It doesn't take you very long to get a tumble when all the rumble lovers go into a rumble.
Oh, how I'd like to be a devil for without a bit of trouble with his zoop-oom-poom-pa.
He can knock eleven ladies for a loopa.
Love the rumba on the tuba down in Cuba.
He's not a green horn.
He plays a mean horn.
A must-be-seen horn.
Oh, he's a whiz, oh, yes, he is.
Why, all of Anna loves this funny-looking booba who plays the rumba on the tuba down
in Cuba.
I can't believe it, but they tell us every peanut vendor's jealous of his zoop-oom-poom-pa.
They prefer it to the boopa-doopa-doopa.
They love the rumba on the tuba down in Cuba.
They love his zoop-oom-pa-oom-pa-oom-pa-pa.

Well, we're getting a red light Martha and that means stop.
Stop the music, time's up.
Well, by rights it should be a green light, Kurt.
A green light means go and they want us to go, don't they?
Go home and clear the studio.
