We'll drink a drink a drink, To Lily the pink the pink the pink, The saviour of the human race, For she invented, Medicinal compound, Most efficacious, In every case.
I love you for your Pink Cadillac Crushed velvet seats Riding in the back Oozing down the street Waving to the girls Feeling out of sight Spending all my money On a saturday night
abi---the person who invented "medicinal compound" was Lydia Pinkham. Her name still includes the word "pink" but I wanted you to know! Hers is an interesting story of early (c. 1880) marketing skills.

To Lily the pink the pink the pink,
The saviour of the human race,
For she invented,
Medicinal compound,
Most efficacious,
In every case.
Lily the Pink - ?
I really love the band
By the way which one is Pink?
Have a cigar, Pink Floyd
A white sport coat and a pink carnation...
Marty Robbins?
All of her lovers all talk of her notes,
And the flowers that they never sent,
Wasn't she easy,
And isn't she pretty in pink.
Pretty In Pink - The Psychedelic Furs
I was a lonely teenaged [something] buck
With a pink carnation and a pick-up truck.
But I knew I was out of luck
The day the music died.
--"American Pie," Don McLean

I love you for your Pink Cadillac
Crushed velvet seats
Riding in the back
Oozing down the street
Waving to the girls
Feeling out of sight
Spending all my money
On a saturday night

I just noticed that I completely duplicated a post before mine - sorry Anonymous! Don't quite know how I missed that - Pink Cadillac was so yours :)
