[Jolly Well]

I use to do a two clown singing skit based off of "Paper of Pins."

Everything I needed, I could store on myself or have nearby.

Song and Skit went something like this (we were myself - tramp, and her - Whiteface; but you could swap it out easy enough)

Man Sings: "I'll give to you a paper of pins, if that's the way that love begins; if you will marry - marry, marry marry - if you'll marry me."

Once I stopped singing this part, I'd set-up the needle through balloon gag, and hand my partner the "pin" (needle)

Woman sings: "I don't want you paper of pins if that's the way that love begins, for I won't marry - marry marry marry, I won't marry you"

Once she stopped singing, we'd do the needle through balloon trick

Man: "I'll give to you a golden ball, to bounce from the kitchen to the hall if you will marry, marry marry marry, if you'll marry me"

I'd start juggling here using "golden" juggling balls

Woman: "I don't want your golden ball, to bounce from the kitchen to the hall for I wont marry, marry marry marry, I won't marry you"

She'd interupt my juggling here - causing me to drop the balls.

Man: "I'll give to you a rocking chair - to sit in the garden and take fresh air if you will marry, marry marry marry, if you'll marry me"

I'd go take a break on a rocking chair, (set up earlier)

Woman: "I don't want your rocking chair, to sit in the garden and take fresh air - for I won't marry, marry marry marry, I won't marry you"

Here she'd come tip me over in the rocking chair

(If we were somewhere that we couldnt take a rocking chair - we'd just use a chair anywhere with alternate lyrics - listed below)

Alternate to rocking chair
I'll give to you a soft easy chair,
To sit and comb your pretty hair,
If you will marry, marry marry marry, if you'll marry me

Produce a sponge comb here - you can make one easily from soft foam or sponges

Woman: "I dont want your soft easy chair,
to sit and comb my pretty hair
for I wont marry, marry marry marry, I wont marry you.

perform vanish on sponge comb - if you're not experienced with sleights or magic - I can explain

Man: "I'll give to you a silver spoon,
to feed the baby in the afternoon if you will marry, marry marry marry, if you'll marry me

"We used an oversized mixing spoon"

Woman: I dont want your silver spoon,
to feed the baby in the after noon,
for I wont marry, marry marry marry, I wont marry you

She'd fling an invisible object at me from the spoon where I'd take a fall from the "impact"

Man: "I'll give to you the keys to my chest,
and all the money that I possess if you will marry, marry marry marry, if you'll marry me

remove my tophat and perform a trunciated version of the miser's dream

Woman: "If you give me the keys to your chest,
and all the money that you possess, then I will marry, marry marry marry, I will marry you.

She'd hold her hand out for the coin

Man: Ah hah hah, now I see - you love my money but you don't love me - well I wont marry, marry marry marry, I won't marry you.

show the empty hand/vanish coin from the end of the miser
woman chases man off stage - or to new walk around location

It's not as long as the post makes it sound - five minutes or so - give or take. The props are easy enough to store in oversized pockets or in a magicans vest
