A Sick Song - Barry Louis Polisar

I got snot, I got phlegm,

I got a lot more problems, let me tell you 'bout them:

I sit still, I get rest,

I take pills and aspirin and never get dressed.

I eat soup, I sip tea,

I’m taking vitamin C but it doesn’t help me.

I still sniff, I still sneeze,

I’m coughin' pretty often and I also wheeze.

I got snot, I got phlegm,

I got a lot more problems, let me tell you 'bout them:

I sit still, I get rest,

I take pills and aspirin and never get dressed.

I can’t sing, I can’t talk.

I’m so busy, but I’m dizzy, can’t even walk.

I’m a mess… I guess.

My head is hot, got congestion in my chest.

I got snot, I got phlegm,

I got a lot more problems, let me tell you 'bout them:

I sit still, I get rest,

I take pills and aspirin and never get dressed.

Listen please!

I’m diseased.

It’s no thrill being ill.

I can hardly breathe.

I need a doctor.

I’ll take a vet.

I need a shot and a pot and don’t forget:

I got snot, I got phlegm,

I got a lot more problems, let me tell you 'bout them:

I sit still, I get rest,

I take pills and aspirin and never get dressed.

I’m so weak.

I can’t speak.

I need a cure for sure or I’ll be sick a week.

I’ve got aches.

I’ve got pains.

I’m bloated and coated with spots and stains.

I got snot, I got phlegm,

I got a lot more problems, let me tell you 'bout them:

I sit still, I get rest,

I take pills and aspirin and never get dressed.

I’ve thrown up.

I’m so frail.

I’d try to stand up but I know I’d fail.

My eyes water, my ears ring.

I’m out of breath, close to death and weakening.

I got snot, I got phlegm,

I got a lot more problems, let me tell you 'bout them:

I sit still, I get rest,

I take pills and aspirin and never get dressed
