[00:00:01] Ladies and gentlemen

[00:00:03] May I have your attention please

[00:00:07] Do you wake every morning in shame and despair

[00:00:09] To discover your pillow is covered with hair

[00:00:13] What ought not to be there

[00:00:15] Well ladies and gentlemen

[00:00:17] From now on you can waken with ease

[00:00:19] You need never again have a worry or care

[00:00:21] I will show you a miracle marvelous rare

[00:00:25] Gentlemen you are about to see something that rose from the dead

[00:00:33] On the top of my head

[00:00:39] Scarcely a month ago gentlemen

[00:00:40] I was suddenly struck with a rare oriental disease

[00:00:45] Though the finest physicians in london were called

[00:00:47] I awakened one morning amazed and appalled

[00:00:49] To discover with dread that my head was as bald

[00:00:51] As a novice's knees

[00:00:53] I was dying of shame

[00:00:55] Till a gentleman came

[00:00:57] An illustrious barber pirelli by name

[00:01:04] He gave me a liquid as precious as gold

[00:01:08] I rubbed it in daily like what I was told

[00:01:12] And behold

[00:01:17] Only thirty days old

[00:01:23] 'Twas pirelli's miracle elixir

[00:01:27] That's what did the trick sir

[00:01:29] True sir true

[00:01:31] Was it quick sir

[00:01:33] Did it in a tick sir

[00:01:34] Just like an elixir ought to do

[00:01:39] How about a bottle mister

[00:01:41] Only costs a penny guaranteed

[00:01:43] Penny buys a bottle I don't know

[00:01:45] You don't need ah let's go

[00:01:46] Does pirelli's stimulate the growth sir

[00:01:49] You can have my oath sir

[00:01:51] 'Tis unique

[00:01:53] Rub a minute

[00:01:55] Stimulating in'it

[00:01:57] Soon you'll have to thin it

[00:01:59] Once a week

[00:02:00] Gently dab it gets to be a 'abit

[00:02:04] Soon there'll be enough sir

[00:02:06] Somebody can grab it

[00:02:08] See this chap with hair like shelley's

[00:02:12] You can tell he's used pirelli's

[00:02:16] Let me have a bottle

[00:02:17] Make that two

[00:02:17] Pardon me ma'am what's that awful stench

[00:02:19] Are we standing near an open trench

[00:02:23] Buy pirelli's miracle elixir

[00:02:26] Anything what's slick sir

[00:02:28] Soon sprouts curls

[00:02:30] Try pirelli's
