this is a lyric...can be sung to the song that Donald O'Conner sang and danced to in one of his Gene Kelly movies..."Make Them Laugh"
Take A Pill
Take a pill, take a pill
Everyone needs a pill
The doctor checks you out and says
“You need to take this pill”
You take his pill and you find out
It hasn’t cured your ill
You get to thinking all about
Your need to write your will
Take a pill, take a pill, take a pill
Take a pill, take a pill
Everyone needs a pill
Get into bed
Your throat is red
Your feeling down and out
You’ve got this pain
You’re feeling lame
Perhaps you’ve got the gout
If that’s a fact you’re out of luck
You may have lost life’s bout
Take a pill, take a pill, take a pill
Take a pill, take a pill
Everyone needs a pill
Your temperature is way up high
And you can’t reason why
If it rises any farther
It will surely reach the sky
You’re fever has you burning up
If you don’t want to die
Take a pill, take a pill, take a pill
