SCAFFOLD - LILY THE PINK (trad; bew: J. Gorman; M. McGear; R. McGough) Parlophone R 5734 We'll drink the drink to drink To Lilly the pink, the pink, the pink The saviour of the human race She invented medicinal compound She was efficacious in every case Mr Fleers had sticky out ears And it made him awful shy So they gave him medicinal compound Now he's learning how to fly Rubber Tony was known to be boney He would never eat his meals So they gave him medicinal compound Now they move him round on wheels We'll drink the drink to drink To Lilly the pink, the pink, the pink The saviour of the human race She invented medicinal compound She was efficacious in every case Ebenezer thought he was Julius Ceasar So they put him in a home Where they gave him medicinal compound Now he's Emperor of Rome Johnny Hammer had a terrible s-stammer He could hardly s-say a word So they gave him medicinal compound Now he's seen, but never heard Anty Millie ran willy-nilly And her legs, they did recede So they looked up medicinal compound Now they call her Millipede Jennifer Eccles had terrible freckles And all the boys called her names But she changed with medicinal compound Now she joins in all the games We'll drink the drink to drink To Lilly the pink, the pink, the pink The saviour of the human race She invented medicinal compound She was efficacious in every case Lilly, the pink, she turned to drink She filled up the bar with everything in sight And in spite her medicinal compound Sadly, pickle-Lilly died Up to Heaven, her soul assended All the church bells, they did ring She took with her medicinal compound Hark the herald angel sing We'll drink the drink to drink To Lilly the pink, the pink, the pink The saviour of the human race She invented medicinal compound She was efficacious in every case
