With most sincere apologies to The Animals
There is a house in New Jersey
They call The Dripping Phlegm
And it’s been the sorrow of many a soul
Now count me one of them
My sinuses once worked quite well
I breathed both in and out
I talked, I laughed, I inhaled smells
I even walked about
Now the only thing a cougher needs
Are drops and pills and sprays
I inhale steam in my hot tub
It’s been this way for days
Oh mother tell your children
not to do what I have done
But stay away from germ-y friends
Go to a beach with sun
Got one foot in the front hall
The other’s out the door
Searching for the miracle cure
They claim it’s at the store
Well there is a house in New Jersey
They call The Dripping Phlegm
It’s been the sorrow of many a poor soul
Now count me one of them
ROFL!! WELL DONE!
*grin* it came to me as i sat in the hot tub, breathing in steam, blowing my nose, coughing. an inspiration
