04 Who Put The Benzedrine In Mrs. Murphy's Ovaltine?

Mrs. Murphy couldn't sleep
Her nerves were slightly off the beat
Until she solved her problem
With a can of Ovaltine

She drank a cup full most every night
And oooh, how she would dream
Until something rough got in the stuff
And made her neighbors scream, "Ow!"

Who put the Benzedrine
In Mrs. Murphy's Ovaltine?
Sure is a shame, don't know who's to blame
'Cause the old lady didn't even get his name

Where did she get that that stuff?
Now she just can't get enough
It might have been the man who wasn't there
Nah, Jack, that guy's a square!

She never ever wants to go to sleep
She said that everything is solid all-reet
Now Mr. Murphy don't know what it's all about
'Cause she went and threw the old man out. Clout!

Who put the Benzedrine
In Mrs. Murphy's Ovaltine?
Now she wants to swing the Highland Fling
Says the Benzedrine's the thing that makes her spring

Ah, spring it now, Gibson!
This is the second chorus, you know
The name of this chorus is called
"Who put the Nembutals in Mr. Murphy's overalls?"
I don't know

She bought a can of Ovaltine
Most every week or so
And she always kept an extra can on hand
Just in case that she'd run low

She's never never been so happy
Since she left old Ireland
Till someone prowled her pantry
Sure and tampered with her can. Wham!

Sure was a shame, don't know who's to blame
'Cause the old lady didn't even get his name

Where did she get that that stuff?
Now she just can't get enough
It might have been the man who wasn't there
Nah, Jack, that guy's a square
She stays up night makin' all the rounds
They say she lost about 69 pounds
Now Mr. Murphy claims she's getting awful thin
And all she says is "Gimme some skin!" Mop!

Now she wants to swing the Highland Fling
She says the Benzedrine's the thing that makes her spring
Ah, spring it now, Gibby!
