[Intro]
Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention, per-lease?
Do you wake ev'ry morning in shame and despair to discover your pillow is covered with hair
Wot ought not to be there?
Well, ladies and gentlemen, from now on, you can waken with ease
You need never again have a worry or care, I will show you a miracle marvelous rare
Gentlemen, you are about to see something that rose from the dead
On the top of my head
[Intro]
Scarcely a month ago, gentlemen
I was struck with a horrible dermatologic disease
Though the finest physicians in London were called, I awakened one morning, amazed and appalled
To discover with dread that my head was as bald as a novice's knees
I was dying of shame
Till a gentleman came
An illustrious barber, Pirelli by name
[Intro]
He gave me a liquid as precious as gold
I rubbed it in daily like wot I was told
And behold
Only thirty days old
[Chorus]
'Twas Pirelli's Miracle Elixir
That's what did the trick, sir, true, sir, true
Was it quick, sir? Did it in a tick, sir, just like an elixir ought to do
[Verse 1]
How about a bottle, mister? Only costs a penny, guaranteed
Penny buys a bottle, I don't know
Go ahead and tug, sir
Penny for a bottle, is it?
Go ahead, sir, harder
Ah, let's go
[Chorus]
Does Pirelli's stimulate the growth, sir?
You can have my oath, sir, 'tis unique
Rub a minute, stimulatin', i'n'it?
Soon you'll have to thin it once a week
[Verse 2]
Penny buys a bottle, guaranteed
Penny buys a bottle, might as well
'Ow about a sample? Have you ever smelled a cleaner smell?
Wotcher think? Isn't it a crime they let these urchins clog the pavement?
[Chorus]
Gently dab it, gets to be a habit
Soon there'll be enough, sir, somebody can grab it
See that chap with hair like Shelley's?
You can tell he's used Pirelli's
[Verse 3]
Let me have a bottle
Make that two
Pardon me, ma'am, what's that awful stench?
Are we standing near an open trench?
Must be standing near an open trench
[Chorus]
Buy Pirelli's Miracle Elixir
Anything wot's slick, sir, soon sprouts curls
Try Pirelli's, when they see how thick, sir
You can have your pick, sir, of the girls
[Verse 4]
Want to buy a bottle, missus? Propagates the hair, sir
What is this? Smells like piss
What is this? Smells like— phew!
He says it smells like piss
Says it smells like piss or something
Wouldn't touch it if I was you, dear
This is piss, piss with ink
[Bridge]
Let me smell that bottle, I don't want no ink piss, what is this?
What does that smell like to you, sir?
Never mind that madman, mister
Give us back our money
What does that smell like to you ma'am?
Where is this Pirelli?
Yeah, where is this Pirelli?
[Chorus]
Let Pirelli's activate your roots, sir
Keep it off your boots, sir, eats right through
Go and get Pirelli
Yes, get Pirelli's, use a bottle of it, ladies seem to love it
Flies do too
[Bridge]
Hand the bloody money over
Hand the bloody money over
[Chorus]
See Pirelli's Miracle Elixir
Grow a little wick, sir, then some fuzz
The Pirelli's soon'll make it thick, sir
Like a good elixir always does
Trust Pirelli's, if your hair is sick, sir, fix it in the nick, sir, don't look grim
Just Pirelli's Miracle Elixir, that'll do the trick, sir
[Outro]
What about the money?
If you've got a kick, sir
What about the money?
Where is this Pirelli? Go and get Pirelli, what about our money?
Go and get Pirelli, where is this Pirelli?
[Outro]
Talk to him
