The Lyrics
I wrote this many years ago. Ethel Merman was annoying. She died of a brain tumor. 'Nuff said.
There's no tumors like brain tumors,
There's no tumors I know.
When they cut them out
They leave you squealing,
You look at your skull
And just say "wow",
Your lips are numb
Your hands they have no feeling
Your mind is reeling,
You take no bow.
There's no tumors like brain tumors,
There's no tumors I know.
Everywhere you go you've got your doc in tow,
Your lips are trembling,
Your walk is slow;
Now you're acting foolish on Merv Griffin's show,
It con-tinues to grow
It con-tinues to grow.
There's no tumors I know.
When they cut them out
They leave you squealing,
You look at your skull
And just say "wow",
Your lips are numb
Your hands they have no feeling
Your mind is reeling,
You take no bow.
There's no tumors like brain tumors,
There's no tumors I know.
Everywhere you go you've got your doc in tow,
Your lips are trembling,
Your walk is slow;
Now you're acting foolish on Merv Griffin's show,
It con-tinues to grow
It con-tinues to grow.

I'm usually willing to let gross stuff slide, but this is disgusting
Ok That was rude and un-called for.Ethel Merman was cool and you should die from a brain tumor,that was the most cruel parody and it sucked 1,1,1 and thanks for your email I might send hate mail and spam
I have a friend who would like this because he had a brain tumor (and now has cancer)...but thats it, no one else, including me would like it
No matter how "annoying" you may feel somebody is, they are still a human being and will suffer profusely from having an ailment like this. I don't agree with poking fun at something so serious.

Funniest Title
