"Moses Supposes" is a song featured in the 1952 film Singin' in the Rain sung by Gene Kelly as Don Lockwood and Donald O'Connor as Cosmo Brown, who drops in as Don takes an elocution lesson with a speech teacher (Bobby Watson). One of the tongue twisters that the speech teacher gives as a challenge sets off this high-energy dance number by Don and Cosmo, who promptly turn the teacher into a prop.
Lyrics[]
Moses supposes his toeses are roses
But Moses supposes erroneously
And Moses, he knowses his toeses aren't roses
As Moses supposes his toeses to be
Moses supposes his toeses are roses
But Moses supposes erroneously
A Rose is a rose
A Nose is a nose
A Toese is a toese
Hupidubidu! (ehehehehe)
Moses supposes his toeses are roses
But Moses supposes erroneously
And Moses, he knowses his toeses aren't roses
As Moses supposes his toeses to be
Moses! (Moses supposes his toeses are roses)
Moses! (But Moses supposes erroneously)
Moses! (And Moses, he knowses his toeses aren't roses)
As Moses supposes his toeses to be
Mose is a mose is a mose is a moses
A rose is a rose is a rose is a roses
Couldn't be a lily or a daffy, daffy dilly
It's gotta be a rose 'cause it rhymes with Mose
