Pirelli's Miracle Elixir，出自音乐剧电影《理发师陶德》中Pirelli和Todd公开比拼刮胡子技术的那一场之前，可爱的小男孩Tobias这个广告做得还真是卖力啊。整首歌听下来，如果不看歌词的话，倒是练习英音听力的绝好方式~

　　

 

TOBIAS：

Ladies and gentlemen,

May I have your attention, please?

Do you wake every morning in shame and despair,

Discover your pillow is covered with hair?

What ought not to be there?

 

Well, ladies and gentlemen,

From now on you can waken at ease

You may never again have a worry or care,

I will show you a miracle, marvelous rare,

Gentlemen you are about to see something what rose from the dead,

On the top of my head!

 

'Twas Pirelli's Miracle Elixir,

That's what did the trick sir,

True, sir, true,

Was it quick, sir?

Did it in a tick, sir?

Just like an elixir ought to do.

 

How about a bottle mister?

Only costs a penny, guaranteed.

Does Pirelli's stimulate² the growth, sir?

You can have my oath sir,

'Tis unique.

Rub a minute,

Stimulatin' i'n' it?

Soon you'll have to thin it once a week.

 

TODD:

Pardon me ma'am what's that awful stench?

 

LOVETT:

Are we standing³ near an open trench⁴?

 

TODD:

Must be standing near an open trench.

 

TOBIAS:

Try Pirelli's Miracle Elixir,

Anything what's slick, sir,

Soon sprouts⁵ curls,

Try Pirelli's,

When they see how thick, sir,

You can have your pick, sir, of the girls!

Want to buy a bottle missus?

 

TODD:

What is this?

 

LOVETT:

What is this?

 

TODD:

Smells like piss.

 

LOVETT:

Smells like - phew!

 

TODD:

Looks like piss.

 

LOVETT:

Wouldn't touch it if I was you, dear!

 

TODD:

This is piss. Piss with ink.

 

TOBIAS:

Let Pirelli's activate⁶ your roots, sir.

 

TODD:

Keep it off your boots, sir, eats right through.

 

TOBIAS:

Yes, get Pirelli's!

Use a bottle of it!

Ladies seem to love it —

 

LOVETT:

Flies do too.
