If you love prescription drug commercials as much as I do, this write is for you!!!!!!!!!!!
I'd rather die of my original disease, thank you very much! bwah haha haSide Effects and Miracle Cures
Part One
I had a headache the other day
And went out to seek a cure
The doctor was in and they ushered me back
And he reached out with a hand, pink and pure.
"What seems to be the problem, now?"
He asked with feigned compassion
"I have this pain between my eyes
That can't be fixed with aspirin."
He examined me and x-rayed me
And put me through the mill
CT scans and roasting pans
Then exclaimed, "You're very ill!"
"Oh, Dr, what can you do for me?
Tell me, am I going to die?"
As he sat there sighing and reading my charts
With something like a gleam in his eye.
"I think I have just the thing for you
It came in the mail today
It's pink and blue and has been tentatively approved
By the AMA and the FDA."
So he wrote out a prescription
In a language no linguist could tell
And the pharmacist gave me a strange, funny look
And said, "Let me know if this stuff makes you well."
"I surely shall." I said to him
And made my way back home
Up hill and down and round the town
Just me and my headache, alone.
I fed the dog and kicked the cat
Brought in all the mail
Watered the plants and washed some pants
(My last act before going to hell.)
I settled down upon the couch
My feet up, leaning back
Reached in and pulled out a twenty page pamphlet
And a small bottle out of the sack.
Four hours later, I was still reading
And the night was fast spinning away
The pain was hard throbbing within my poor noggin
And I groaned as the band next door played.
Well, I had to read the side effects
Before I took the pills
So, therefore, read them here below
If you plan on getting ill.

Part Two
Well, soon, it was almost morning
And I finally finished reading this crap
I took two of the pink and blue pills
And laid down for a good healing nap.
Lo and behold, I awakened
From twenty three minutes of sleep
I opened my eyes but I could not see squat
And was confused by the bleating of sheep.
I tried to sit but I couldn't sit
I tried to stand but fell
I tried to talk and I tried to walk
And I tried to spin and spell.
But nothing came out of my mouth
But foam and utter goo
I crawled out of my bed because
I had to find the glue.
My tongue was swollen and so was my foot
But still, I was determined to dance
I stepped in a pile of bird droppings, pee-yoo!
And of course, that's when I wet my pants.
There were tiny things on the ceiling
There were horse shoes all over the floor
There were bubblegum wrappers and monkeys
There were doorways but there was no door.
In a panic, I was wondering and pondering
Until I remembered the warning
Picked up the pamphlet and sure nuff it said:
No sitting, no standing, no ironing.
So I couldn't sit and I couldn't stand
And I couldn't iron my clothes
But I developed an allergy to running around wrinkled
And I blew off the end of my nose!
"I'll make myself something to eat." I thought
As I coughed with a terrible croup
I melted some crayons in a microwave dish
And made a bowl of some purplegreen soup.
I crawled over and turned on the t.v.
Heard a band playing, "Hail To The Chief"
Threw open the window, excited
And began giving an inaugural speech.
"You're not the President, you idiot!"
Some guy yelled down below
"We've already got a POTUS in D.C."
And I said, "Well, what do you know?"
"Do you come from Hyannis Port, Mass?" he asked
"Or from Texas so big and so plush?
Then shut up today." he said, walking away
"Besides you don't even look like a Bush!"
"Well, maybe I am the Queen." I pouted
"What do you think of that, mister?"
And he said, "Maybe so, hell, what do I know?
You might be a queen or his sister."
I took a few more of the pink and blue pills
At this rate, now, what could it hurt?
I took them with tea and then out popped my knee
And my kidney fell off with a splurt.
I woke up in the refrigerator
With butter all over my head
What possessed me to do so, I may never know
(Frigidaire makes a terrible bed.)
I then became obsessed with soap operas
By the t.v. I was rooted in place
Taking my part with those young restless hearts
Till the day Erica Cane slapped my face.
"It's all my mother-in-law's fault!" I cried
"I don't care what for nine months she carried!"
I tantrum-ed and twitched and I hated that witch
(Till I remembered that I'd never been married.)
"What's that?" I screamed at a noise, then
And a letter in the mail slot fell through
Publisher's Clearinghouse, oh, rapture, oh, joy
I'll be a millionaire soon, maybe two.
"I must have me some Corn Flakes to celebrate!"
But in vain, there was none, not a sliver
I dialed up the store with my elbows
Begged and cried but they would not deliver.
I sat in the dark and I planned the demise
Of the store clerk who did me so wrong
Counted the numbers that just would not add up
And then burst into spontaneous song.
The pain, it grew unbearable
The symptoms flared up by the score
I tried so hard to boil water
Till I just couldn't boil anymore.
"I must steal something large!" I cried out
"I must eat that shoe, there, over there!"
I must run on the sun but when that wasn't done
I fell inexplicably in love with my chair.
"Oh, Lord, in Heaven, what have I done?
Am I not one of your good boys and girls?"
But the Lord, He just smiled and then after awhile
Said, "You're grounded till the end of the world."
I don't know how long this went on
The days and the nights, they passed by
I thought to myself, (or what I thought was myself)
And I said, "I must give it a try."
I climbed out on the telephone pole
And to my doctor's office, I made a call
"Oh, the doctor's not in, he's on an all expense paid
Trip to an island and won't be back till fall."
"What?!" I screamed, "Don't tell me that!
Do you know what I've been through, you ninny?"
"Shall I call in a refill of Noidea?" she murmured
And I said, "Yes." (Cause I didn't have any.)
"I love you!" I called out as she hung up
"No, I don't!" as I fell on the ground
And I knew in my heart that was beating too slow
That I'd soon have to put that nurse down.
The drug store delivered the medicine
For I no longer remembered to drive
My liver was failing and my organs all ailing
And I wasn't sure that I still was alive.
My dog and cat, they ran away
But not til they'd called the police
They charged me with animal cruelty and lied
Told the cops I had given them fleas.
So I took my pills and I fevered and chilled
Followed instructions to the letter, it's true
On the forty-fourth night of no sleep, in my fright
I beheld that my skin had turned blue.
"Well, that's the end!" I said, mourning
"I can't go on blue like this now."
I could be a stand in, for one of the Blue Man group blue men
But for the life of me, I didn't know how.
Oh, it was hopeless, it was sad
I was skinny as a rake
I lived on crayon soup and feathers
And four times a day, I'd take.....
Those little pink and little blues
Those little pink and blues
I couldn't sit and I couldn't stand
And I couldn't wear red shoes.
One day I found a Muppet puppet
And she told me with grace and with tact
"You must fly away, you must do it today
You must fly and must never come back."
So I made my preparations
I climbed up on the roof
I converted to Jewish, a religion, not newish
And I swear that I tell you the truth.
I flew. I flew! I tell you I flew!
I flew from the tops of the trees
My headache was gone and my heart full of song
And I'd have made it if I hadn't sneezed.
For when I sneezed, the aliens heard me
(You know the ones hovering, up there?)
But I took my stand and said, "Look, little green man
I'm not going if I can't take my chair."
So, that's my tale and my story
My poor life, as you see, has been wrecked
I may not decease from some ache or disease
But those pink and blue pill side effects.................
