There is a whole family of these 'spare parts' songs Side By Side O we got married on Friday, the4 vicar said it was my day When the guests had all gone, we were alone side by side We got ready for bed then, and I nearly dropped dead when Her false teeth and hair, she laid on a chair side by side Picture my amazement when her glass eye she let fall Her wooden leg and other things she stood up against the wall Now me and my wife we are parted before we even got started I slept on the chair - there was more of her there Side by side But there is also one to the tune of After the Ball After the baall was over she sat on the sofa and cried s She put her false teeth in salt water and took out her lovely glass eye She threw her peg leg in the corner, and hung up her wig in the wall Then the rest of her went to bye-byes After the Ball! And Geoff Ling of Blaxhall wrote one to 'Among my souvenirs' Dave
