Everyone around here except ME has been getting colds; typical, I think with the change in seasons. Because I I I I I don't want to get sick, I find myself barking out orders to the kids: "WASH YOUR HANDS! COVER YOUR MOUTH! DON'T COUGH RIGHT IN MY FACE IN A CLOSED VEHICLE! USE A KLEENEX, GOD!!!" and things of this nature. I think it would be much more fun to just play this song by the late psychobilly musical pioneer, Screamin' Jay Hawkins. Please to enjoy this very silly song and STAY AWAY FROM ME, SICKIES!
shut your mouth when you sneeze
don't put them funky things on me
you even got your eyeballs closed
i don't know what comes out your nose
shut your mouth when you brush your teeth
i smell your gums you got rotten meat
your face looks like you've just been beat
I'll never sit next to you when you eat
A you're adorable
B i believe you stand a chance
A when the truth is really awful
gee you look like a blown up mutant ant!
A you've got those huge baboon lips
plastic surgery helped king kong's hips
did you, oh did you hear what i said?
a baboon knows that a monkey head
i wish i'd met you before you were born
i could've changed your head for a corn
but you have lived this way too long
and now your folks don't want you to belong
shut your mouth don't try to talk
you're just learning how to walk
i dont know what you have got
they call it this, i say jungle rot!
shut your mouth when you sneeze
dont put them funky things on me
you even got your eyeballs closed
i dont know what comes out your nose
Screamin' Jay Hawkins, "Shut Your Mouth When You Sneeze"
