Some people say a scout is made outta viewers
A poor man's made outta scouts and elephants
But there was the host Bud Collyer on it
A mind that's a-scout and a view that's strong

You see 300 scouts, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
George Briant, don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the show Beat the Clock

I was seen one moonlight when the moon didn't shine
I picked up my ticket and I walked to the show
I loaded 300 scouts of the big viewership
And the boy scouts said, "Let's take your picture Roxanne!"

You see 300 scouts, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
George Briant, don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my ticket to the watch the show

I was born one moonlight, it was the 300 boy scouts
Watchin' and cheering are my middle scouts
George and Germaine can help them view them
Can't Carole help them make me watch the show

You see 300 scouts, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
George Briant, don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my ticket to the watch the show

If you see boys comin', better step aside
A lotta scouts didn't, a lotta scouts live
One fist of viewers, the other of elephants
If the right one don't get you
Then the left one will

You see 300 scouts, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
George Briant, don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my ticket to the watch the show
