Ladies and gentlemen
May I have your attention please?
Do you wake every morning in shame and despair
To discover your pillow is covered with hair
What 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
What rose from the dead on the top of my head'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 doHow about a bottle, mister?
Only costs a penny, guaranteed
Penny buys a bottle, I don't know

Go ahead, sir, harder
Does Pirelli's stimulate the growth, sir?
You can have my oath, sir'Tis unique, rub a minute
Stimulatin', in'it?
Soon you'll have to thin it
Once a weekGently 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 'e's used Pirelli'sLet me have a bottle

Pardon me, sir, what's that awful stink?
Smells to me like piss and looks like inkBuy Pirelli's Miracle elixir
