The Swine Flu Shuffle

I was going to immediately type up an updated version of an old paper but realize I had lost all of the photos and such for it so will have to start it from scratch. So, in meanwhile I will post the lyrics to a song I have written called 'The Swine Flu Shuffle."
With Kozmikon's thought provoking updates on the subject I remember a little dry humored song I sketched up on the matter right when the scare was coming out.

Note that the rhythm of the chorus is to take after "Bad Case Of Loving You" by Robert Palmer.

"Dr,Dr, Tell me what to do
I've got a bad case of that damn swine flu.
I don't wanna vomit, I don't wanna struggle
I just need to get up and do the Swine Flu Shuffle.

Kick to the left, Jive to the side
Get a shot of mercury just to stay alive
Hop on one foot, Wear this white mask
Case number 5,001 if they ask.

Dr,Dr I've got this slight cough
It's like this plague that I just can't get off.
I was eating Anthrax, I had mad cow disease
I even remember that drastic bird flu sneeze.
But this one's so bad, I just don't know what to do
"Chances are, Son, You've got the swine flu."

There's one way,baby, that I can shake it off
The swine flu baby, Shake it off (Shake it off!)
Take this shot, He has a medical coat
Jam these orange pills right down your throat.
The swine flu shuffle, Contagious and sly
Will this measly cough make me d,d,d,d,Die!?

Dr,Dr Tell me what to do
I've got a bad case of that damn swine flu
I don't wanna vomit, I don't wanna struggle
Just gotta get up and... Swine Flu Shuffle

[The bridge of the song would go right here:]
To the left baby, Shake it off shake it off
To the right baby, shake it off shake it off
Awwe hell, get it off me, get it off me
The deadly swine flu- just stick me with a shot.
(Add weak cough sound behind select verses)"

Okay,so maybe it won't be that big of a hit if I ever get around to recording it.. 'Can't imagine
and I might be dragged to the old mill house and hung for bringing up humor among something so feared.. But with it breaking out in the news of deaths after vaccination right down to the next town from me, It's starting to get pretty alarming as ideals of 'medical guinea pigging' going this far. Just look up all of the ingredients within this damned 'cure.'
"We're all healthy, says the FDA"
