The Healthy One - Laura Stevenson

Hey, you lucky kid

The others have come down with it

In the early stages, baby

So that means you have to watch them carefully

So keep them from running near the corner

When you are playing, play nice

And mind the nice lady three times daily

She’ll give them something to make it, to make it go away

And you complain, you complain, you complain

Oh deary, your mother’s got a fever

And clearly, your daddy’s gonna leave her

That leaves you with your little sisters, oh

And you know, they didn’t mean to cut you

Just had to see if your blood was sick, too

And it’s clear with all the critters weakening your sisters

And your system’s running quick and not as sickly as you think

And you will live long

You will bury them all in the ground

And your body will grow

You will bury them all

And you will live long

You will bury them all in the ground

And your body will grow

You will bury them all

And you will live long

You will bury them all in the ground

And your body will grow

It hurts to be the healthy one
