How I Became an Orphan - The Men That Will Not Be Blamed For Nothing

Dolly died of dysentery

Polly got the pox

Kevin caught cholera

Harry whooping cough

Maisy died of measles

Hue died of abue

Toby was taken by typhoid

And doc was too

Rats, lice and fleas

My only company

Since you’ve been gone

I’m left on my own with these

Rats, lice and fleas

Timmy died of tetanus

Tessa from TB

Poor Georgie, he was stuffed

But that’s another story

Sam succumb to syphilis

Father fell to flu

Mother died of grief

Her heart was broken

In two

Rats, lice and fleas

My only company

Since you’ve been gone

I’m left on my own with these

Rats, lice and fleas

RATS, LICE AND FLEAS

MY ONLY COMPANY

SINCE YOU’VE BEEN GONE

I’M LEFT ON MY OWN WITH THESE

RATS, LICE AND FLEAS

Yaaaargh!

Aargh!

Aargh!

Aargh!

Aaaaaarrgh!
