Old Bill Pepper had hoped to get better.
He sat up in bed and hit his poor head

Broke up in pain,
As he went all insane
Mumbled a curse
Then called for the nurse

Cried out in vain despite his great pain
She hurried her pace after powdering her face
Greeted poor Bill having a bloated blue gaze
All dead and bled, like a budgie she had fed.

  
Kissed him and  prayed, then sent for the maid
Then blessed him she may
Till he fell in his grave.

All sorry was she, as she played with the sheet
That had covered poor Bill who had written his will.

No more had she had
Than the pan and the fan
As an empty bed lay
Lest Bill Pepper could stay?
