Eric Jackson,"Petrol in My Blood "(Lulu.com: 2012):
“I said [to Liberace], ‘I bet that you’ve never been asked to play 'Three Old Ladies Locked in a Lavatory.’ He looked a little taken aback and said he’d never heard of it. ‘In a lavat’ry?’ he asked. I sang the words to him and he fell about laughing.
Oh, dear, what can the matter be?
Three old ladies are locked in the lavatory
They were there from Monday to Saturday.
Nobody knew they were there.
They promised to go and have tea with the vicar
They went in together, they thought it was quicker,
The lock on the door was a bit of a sticker
The vicar had tea on his own.
CHORUS
The first old lady her name was Miss Porter
She was the Bishop of Chichester’s daughter,
She went in to get rid of superfluous water
From drinking two bottles of gin.
CHORUS
The second old lady her name was Miss Wender
She went in to adjust her suspender
She got it caught up in her feminine gender
And that was an awkward affair.
CHORUS
The third old lady, her name was Miss Pumfrey
She tried very hard to get her bum free
She said, ‘Leave me here, it’s so cosy and comfy
The vicar had tea on his own.
CHORUS "
