Real Live Alchemy

[Intro: Mr. Turkentine & Charlie Bucket]

We have here nitric acid, glycerin and a special mixture of my own

Together it's horrible, dangerous stuff, blows you up

But mixed together in the right way, as only I know how

What do you think it makes?

I don't know, sir

Of course you don't know

You don't know because only I know

If you knew and I didn't know, then you'd be teaching me instead of me teaching you

And for a student to teach his teacher is presumptuous and rude

Do I make myself clear?

Yes, sir

[Interlude: Louis Farrakhan]

Salaam alaikum (Alaikum salaam)

What that's, that fella said in the book?

He said sit, Mr. Muhammad

He said

That in the volumеs of the book, He comes

You can't say a lot of things to rеtort

[Outro: Muhammad Ali & Jim Lampley]

Everybody, stop talking now, attention

I told ya, all of my critics

I told you all that I was the greatest of all time

Larry, seventy to sixty-two, seven to nothing

I never saw a super featherweight throw six, seven, eight punch combinations like he throws

He's absolutely beautiful
