Point Cove – I Am The Edison Phonograph lyrics

I am the Edison Phonograph,

Created by the great wizard of the New World,
I can sing you tender songs of love,
I can give you merry tales and joyous laughter,
I can transport you to the realms of music,

I am the Edison Phonograph,

I can cause you to join in the rhythmic dance,
I can lull the babe to sweet repose,
Or waken in the aged heart,
Soft memories of youthful days.
No matter what may be your mood,
I am always ready to entertain you,

I am the Edison Phonograph,

I am a genuine Edison Phonograph,

When your day's work is done,
I can bring the theatre or the opera to your home,
I can give you grand opera, comic opera or vaudeville,
I can give you sacred or popular music,
Dance, orchestra or instrumental music,
I can render solos, duets,
Trios, quartets,
I can aid in entertaining your guests,

I am the Edison Phonograph,

I am a genuine Edison Phonograph,

I give pleasure to all, young and old,
I will go wherever you want me,
In the parlour, in the sickroom, on the porch,
In the camp or to your summer home.
If you sing or talk to me,
I will retain your songs or words,
And repeat them to you at your pleasure,
I can enable you to always hear the voices of your loved ones,
Even though they are far away,

I am the Edison Phonograph,

I talk in every language,
I can help you to learn other languages,
I am made with the highest degree of mechanical skill,
My voice is the clearest, smoothest,
And most natural of any talking machine,
The name of my famous master is on my body,
And tells you that I am a genuine Edison phonograph.

I am the Edison Phonograph,
