Original Song Title:

"There's No Business Like Show Business"

Original Performer:

Ethel Merman

  
Parody Song Title:

"There's No Tumors Like Brain Tumors"

Parody Written by:

Jim Mellon

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.

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.
