Found in a blog:
"Now once for my breakfast I could eat fifty eggs Now I can't go forty-nine of them I had muscles hard, like slabs of lard But alas now I can't see a sign of 'em (alas alas) I got so thin that the suits that I wear Fit me nowhere and I don't think it's fair She don't seem to care if to nothing I shrink I'm afraid to wash now (you can guess this one) Lest I slip down the sink...."
* I know Cosmotheka was famous for reviving old music-hall songs. Was this an old music-hall song? If so, does anybody know wrote it, or who performed it originally, or anything else about the song?
If it IS a music-hall song, I might be able to find the sheet-music, if I had more to go on.
