[00:01.19] I'd like to introduce you now to isabell lam
[00:03.62]
[00:04.45] Present owner of the edward lam wax museum
[00:07.36] Daughter of the comedic duo dorothy and edward
[00:10.43]
[00:13.52] Do you remember them
[00:15.52] They accomplished mild success
[00:18.10] On the stages of the vaudeville theaters
[00:21.95] In blackpool and in london
[00:24.29] That was before the advent of hollywood
[00:27.00] When vaudeville died
[00:28.24] And people stopped going to see them
[00:30.08] So they took out a loan and built a big wax museum
[00:33.66] Inside of an old abandoned vaudeville theater
[00:36.75]
[00:39.51] It was about this time
[00:41.40] That dorothy gave birth to their only child
[00:43.66] And named her isabell
[00:44.68] And from that day
[00:46.22]
[00:46.87] They were so happy and gay momma papa
[00:49.32]
[00:50.11] And their sweet and thoughtful treasured
[00:51.87] Fair haired angel baby girl
[00:53.39]
[00:54.05] Eventually a half a century passes
[00:56.07] We see edward in a wheelchair
[00:58.43] Dorothy in granny glasses
[00:59.84] And isabell the proud proprietor of the wax museum
[01:03.06]
[01:04.41] Wax museum
[01:07.55]
[01:08.07] Isabell would you like to tell about
[01:12.07] The bell hidden inside your name
[01:14.91]
[01:16.21] Does it ring every time someone calls out isabell
[01:20.88]
[01:22.44] Do you hear it when you run
[01:25.33]
[01:26.27] If it broke they'd yell out 'isa' instead of isabell
[01:33.20]
[01:34.14] Until you fixed your bell
