I'm looking for as much of the words as possible to the song "When Erastus Plays His Old Kazoo"
( Sammy Fain, Sam Coslow, Larry Spider)
The most complete version I have found so far comes from
http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9x6a6_herman-kenin-when-erastus-plays-his_music
Ain't no use to keep your seat
for you simply can't control your feet
When Erastus plays his old kazoo
Although he plays in just one key
it's a regular low down symphony
When Erastus plays his old kazoo
When he goes bo oh de oh, bo oh de oh, bo oh de oh,
you can't help singing
bo oh de oh, bo oh de oh, bo oh de oh,
your ears are ringing
When Erastus plays his old kazoo
Every operatic star
throws away his whole darn repertoire
When Erastus plays his old kazoo
from

When Erastus plays his old kazoo (1927). I've heard Chopin, Wagner, too know their music thru and thru [first line]. Tain't no use to keep your seat for you simply can't control [first line of chorus]
I haven't found any recorded version that includes that "first line"
I'm wondering if there are any additional words.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Playing the kazoo keeps your mind young.
It doesn't necessarily help with the body.
