Lily the Pink (3)

Lily the Pink (3)

 Brother Tony,
 Was known to be bony,
 He would never eat his meals,
 So they gave him medicinal compound,
 Now they move him round on wheels.

 Johnny Hammer,
 Had a teribble st-st-st-stammer,
 He could hardly s-s-say a word,
 So they gave him medicinal compound,
 Now he's seen but never heard.

 Jennifer Eccles, had terrible freckles
 And the boys all called her names
 So they gave her medicinal compound
 Now she joins in all their games

 Mr Frears, had sticky out ears
 And it made him awful shy
 So they gave him medicinal compound,
 Now he's learning how to fly

 Old Ebenezer,
 Thought he was Julius Caesar,
 So they put him in a home,
 And they gave him medicinal compound,
 Now he's Emperor of Rome

 Lily the pink, she
 Turned to drink, she
 Filled up with parafin inside,
 So they gave her medicinal compound
 But sadly pickled Lily died.

 Lily died and went up to heaven
 All the church bells, they did ring.
 She took with her medicinal compound;
 Hark the Herald Angels sing.

 Note: the chorus is the same as the other version.
