Yup. It was added to our Digital Tradition Folk Song Database before the database moved to Mudcat in 1996. It was submitted by the legendary Dennis Cook, but probably written by somebody else.

VAN GOGH

Oh my name it is Van Gogh,
Lend an ear, lend an ear.
Oh my name it is Van Gogh,
Lend an ear.
My name it is Van Gogh
And all I did was cough
and my ear it just fell off
Lend an ear, lend an ear.

Oh my right ear's pale and wan
On the floor, on the floor
My right ear's pale and wan on the floor.
My right ear's pale and wan
It was 'ere but now it gone
And it's just been trodden on
And it's sore, and it's sore.

But there's no need to shout or
for gloom or for gloom
But there's no need to shout or for gloom.
But there's no need to shout
I'll take my ear 'ole out
And I'll pass my ear about
Round the room, round the room.

Drinking Watneys leads to tears
I shall teach, I shall teach
Drinking Watneys leads to tears
I shall teach.
Drinking Watneys leads to tears
And the falling off of ears
And the parts that other beers
Cannot reach, cannot reach.
