Lyrics of
The Physician

Once I loved such a shattering physician
Quite the best looking doctor in the state
He looked after my physical condition
And his bedside manner was great
When I'd gaze up and see him there above me
Looking less like a doctor than a Turk
I was tempted to whisper, "Do you love me
Or do you merely love your work?"
verse 1
He said my bronchial tubes were entrancing
My epiglottis filled him with glee
He simply loved my larynx and went wild about my pharynx
But he never said he loved me
verse 2
He said my epidermis was darling
And found my blood as blue as could be
He went through wild ecstatics when I showed him my lymphatics
But he never said he loved me
And though, no doubt, it was not very smart of me
I kept on a-wracking of my soul
To figure out why he loved every part of me
And yet not me as a whole
verse 3
By my esophagus he was ravished
Enthusiastic to a degree
He said 'twas just enormous - my appendix vermformis
But he never said he loved me
verse 4
He said my cerebellum was brilliant
I know he thought a lotta My medulla oblongota
But he never said he loved me
Verse 5
He said my maxillaries were marvels
And found my sternum stunning to see
He did a double hurdle when I shook my pelvic girdle
But he never said he loved me
He seemed amused when he first made a test of me
To further his medical art
Yet he refused when he'd fixed up the rest of me
To cure that ache in my heart
Verse 6
I know he thought my pancreas perfect
And for my spleen was keen as could be
He said, of all his sweeties I'd the sweetest dia - betes
But he never said he loved me
