..............................................

You ever wonder why you get a cold

Look at the word - spell it - C-old

C-OLD

You're pulled over by the reaper for a warning

He says,"I clocked you thinking 80"

You know you're not that old

You've been worried about the darkness in the morning

Well, I'll give you something to worry about, he says

And he flips open his ticket pad

Appreciate your breathing

I'm gonna write you up a headache for those thoughts

Now why you been so worried

What have you been reading

And why do you have to tally all you've lost

I'ma write you up a head cold

It comes on like bad weather

So maybe you'll appreciate the warming

See it gives a new perspective

Soon you'll be feeling better

I'll let you off this time

With a warning

He says, But take it easy, alright

People live around here

You won't see him in time

What I'm trying to say is

You'll miss him
