I love Lucy not Mister Ed
one was love the other a horse
I laughed more with Lucy of course
loved their landlords Ethel and Fred
Mister Ed would put me right to bed...

Lucy and Ricky, Ethel and Fred.
Could'nt agree on what wasn't said.
The girls figured it out.
The boy's, they would just shout.
And now no one knows, now that they're dead....

Aunt Ethel said to Uncle Fred
Let’s attempt the starfish in bed
Old Ethel insisted
Till Fred’s back got twisted
They best stick to sleeping instead!

Here lies old Ethel Mae McMurtrey
She fell while trimming a pine tree
The mortician removed the needles
From prickly Ethel Mae McMurtrey

Oh grandma, Pamela Ethel Moon. 
For me you were gone too soon. 
But gracious God called you home, 
to play piano beside his heavenly throne.

Eight Nuns Running


Eight nuns running down a path far below
Ethel, Edith, Ellen, Barb each in deep snow
From the way they all look might be putting
up a gong show, till they all fall down
while they're all wearing frilly long gowns.

Here lie the bones of Ethel Carter
Scatolologist and expert farter
Her life she said had been a blast …
‘Twas on the John that Ethel passed!

Here lies the remains of old Ethel Carter
she breezed through life as a prolific farter

With a tremendous force she passed her last
departing this world saying ‘life's been a blast’

Here lie the remains of Ethel Brown
A circus clown from County Down
She’s buried wearing her red plastic nose
‘Twill be the last of Ethel to decompose!

Lucy and Ricky had a television show
She was hilarious with Ethel and Fred
Her vita vita vegimen and chocolate delight
Made everyone laugh all night

Ricky was a cabana singer 
Who played bongos on the Lucy show
He could never figure out what Lucy was up to
Until the end of the I Love Lucy show...

mama ethel even though you,ve left us
we know where you are
GOD called you up to Heaven
to be one of His shining stars

we know you are reunited with dad 
your one and only love
and the family cant wait to see you again
in heaven up above

so dear mama wait by the gate
with your arms open wide
that will keep us all going
till we meet you on the other side...

who would
have known
after all
was said
and done

the last of the
Mohicans had
left the room
and Elvis 
had left 

the building
but if you 
still didn't 
get it 
the

proverbial
fat lady
played this
time by Ethel 
Merman

is singing
every
thing's
coming
up roses

as the bus
boy buses
the table
he swears
he never saw

then there came the fiery one,
red headed rancid Reeta,
she threw hot coals into his bed,
an flew on him the cheater,

they wrestled and they fought like dogs,
but she was fierce with anger,
the smoke n fire did billow, fog,
burning flesh ere the manger,
so they sprang into the icy sea,
made love till they were soggled,
Odin looking down, with  a tiny frown,
dubbed em hairy Gog n Magoggle

Fred never bought a pedestal for Ethel's keep
and he provided her with only things cheap.
Despite being a grouch and miser,
it was oft clear Ethel was Fred's desire.

Ethel loved, fussed at and foiled her man
while giving his happiness all one can.
The more she and Lucy grew trouble,
the more she longed for Fred on the double.

There's always been Ethel
isn't it time you tidied your room now
and Mr Thomas is he getting any better now
mowing his lawn
Sunday market, all sundry
roast pork and frilly laces
and I remember the voice from the past

Getting better in your verte garden
with red azaleas awash and pool full
a slithering grass snake
to awaken the soul

there's a pancrea for those in a rush
when the sun is alight
due lovers, gambling your fortune
its one big swoop

Yesterday 
I'm afraid to say
I spilled a plate of Ruby curry
Allover my computer
And now it's sadly dead
I was so upset with myself I went to bed
I cleaned it the best I coold
But still also it was' no good
Now I have to have it repaired
Good job I have computer on my TV
I fell so silly
Curry and computers don't mix
Don't TRy it at home
Or it will cost a lot to fix.

Anyone want to buy a computer cheap?.

RIP Ethel.
