Lyrics
We'll drink a drink, a drink To Lily the Pink, the Pink, the Pink The saviour of the human race For she invented, medicinal compound Most efficacious in every case Mr. Freers, had sticky out ears And it made him awful shy And so they gave him medicinal compound And now he's learning how to fly Robert Tony, was known to be bony He would never eat his meals And so they gave him medicinal compound Now they move him round on wheels We'll drink a drink, a drink To Lily the Pink, the Pink, the pink The savior of the human race For she invented medicinal compound Most efficacious in every case Old Ebenezer thought he was Julius Caesar And so they put him in a home Where they gave him medicinal compound And now he's emperor of Rome Johnny Hammer, had a terrible st-st-st-st-stammer He could hardly s-s-say a word And so they gave him medicinal compound Now's he's seen, but never heard We'll drink a drink, a drink To Lily the Pink, the Pink, the Pink The saviour of our human race For she invented, medicinal compound Most efficacious in every case Aunty Milly, ran willy-nilly When her legs they did recede So they rubbed on medicinal compound Now they call her Milly Pede Jennifer Eccles, had terrible freckles And the boys all called her names But they gave her medicinal compound Now he joins in all the games We'll drink a drink, a drink To Lily the Pink, the Pink, the Pink The savior of our human race For she invented, medicinal compound Most efficacious in every case Lily the Pink, she turned to drink She filled up with paraffin inside And despite her medicinal compound Sadly pickled Lily died Up to heaven her soul ascended All the church bells they did ring She took with her medicinal compound Hark the herald angels sing We'll drink a drink, a drink To Lily the Pink, the Pink, the Pink The saviour of our human race For she invented, medicinal compound Most efficacious in every case
