Lyr Req: Rickety Tickety Tin / The Irish Ballad

Does anyone know where this rather sick song originated, and does anyone have all the words? Several people I know [including my husband] have a bad habit of coming out with bits of it at the least provocation, but when asked to elaborate, say they don't know it all. Very aggravating.

It's by Tom Lehrer. Look in DT for 'The Irish Ballad' or 'Tom Lehrer'.

Cheers, Stewie.
