Open Heart University

We've come a long way
      said the Cigarette Scientist
as he destroyed a live rabbit
      to show the students how it worked.

He took it's heart out
      plugged it into an electric pump
      that kept it beating for nearly two hours.

I know rabbits who can keep their hearts
      beating for nearly seven years

And look at the electricity they save.


Spike Milligan (1977)
