january 2

make sure to sing the song for january 1 before this one.

(sung to the tune of "we three kings")

verse 1:
we're the members of five lewis crew.
bearing illness, our travels accrued.
to the trash can, to the potty, the
pharmacy drive-thru.

oh..................................

throw up here and throw up there.
bits of throw up everywhere.
think it's over? don't be foolish.
that was day one of the year.

verse 2:
jack dug in his ear a bit.
didn't know what to think of it.
then he cried and then he screamed
"DADDY or MOMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

oh..................................

is it infected? is it a whack?
i don't know what's wrong with jack.
fever's climbing, volume's rising,
eardrum is turning black.

verse 3:
called the nurse to ask what to do.
she said, "get in your van that is blue."
drove to children's, got in quickly.
they'll know just what to do!

oh..................................

now the fun starts to begin.
they did all but mangle him.
poking, prodding, screaming, crying,
almost did him in.

verse 4:
come to learn his eardrum is bad.
might explain what made him so sad.
doc said it might rupture soon, it's
blown up just like a balloon.

oh..................................

antibiotics, numbing drops,
anything just to make it stop.
can we start this year again?
the first days have been a flop!!
