Oh What a bloodthirsty lot we are!
The mention of Kenny Everett reminds me of another song in his "Bottom 40"
"Transfusion" by Nervous Norvous
Each verse ending with lines such as
Slip the fluid in me, Loius
Slip the Crimson in me, Jimson
Put the Claret in me, Barrett
Also, virtually anything by Pat Campbell. (The Deal is particularly fine)
And, I do remember a song we used to do many years ago. Mary Thompson, which had the wonderful verse..

Twice more all with his horrid knife
He ran her body through
Her throat was cut from ear to ear
Most dreadful for to view
But, still she smiling said to him
While trembling with fear
Oh David, David spare me life
Think of your baby dear!!
Now....Don't have nightmares...Ralphie
