Being Sick

Michelle, Michelle how are you?

I hope that you are doing well.

It would be awful if the next time I saw you

You had a story of being sick to tell

Because being sick can be no fun at all

You can’t very well throw a ball down the hall

And that’s not all

When you’re sick you can do almost nothing at all.

If you’re sick you can’t go swimming

because the other swimmers would stop swimming.

When you’re sick you can’t go to school

The principle knows it’s against the rule.

When you’re inside feeling sick then you’re missing all the outside fun

And fun that is missed is fun that is done

When the magician is performing his last big trick

You’re home in bed feeling sick sick sick

But on the other hand if you’re sick in bed

It’s really quite hard to bump your head

And your mom might make you breakfast instead.

And if you have a fever of one hundred and two

It’s okay because you have nothing to do

Don’t even bother with tying your shoe

When you’re sick people take care of you.

And if you’re at home feeling sick

Remember – no schoolwork – not a lick!

Wow a day of no work – that’ll do the trick!

Say I guess being sick can be fun after all!

You get to relax, you’ll have a ball

Being sick is fun after all!

So goodbye, see you later!

We’ll talk another day

Michelle, Michelle

I’m glad you’re okay
