Influenza.

When you ache like ell and
Your head hangs low,
And you feel like cross
Tween summer and snow,
When you want to forget
Every damn thing you know.
6 Influenza.
When you shake like leaf,
In the summer breeze,
And the breath you take in
Goes out in a sneeZe,
When the old lung puts up
A "helluva wheeze."
Influenza.
When you feel a sad pain
In your head,
And you think your whole
Damn family Is dead,
When you don't know the head
From the tail of your bed.
Influenza.
When your old beak leaks like
A tub in the sea,
And spreads out on your map
4 Like bum on spree
When you feel like Nearer
My God to Thee.
When your dome rings and
Bangs like crash of a bell,
And your temp lures pounding
The "H' out Of hell,
You know you damn fool
You couldn't get we'll.
