In light of our site host's condition, let's make him feel better with a commemorative song. We can call it the Hospital Blues. I'll start it. Feel free to add your own verses.

There’s too many nurses, pullin’ and pokin’ at me,
And I can’t stand the doctor with a finger the size of a tree.
If I wasn’t so sick, I’d be out of here quick,
And go back to being alone when I pee.

I can't get my supper in spite of my yellin'
And there's nothin' on TV but Oprah and Ellen.
My gown keeps on flappin' and it's cool down below
That's my only relief from the throbbin' and swellin'

A guy called al got the flu
He said "Doc what'll I do?"
The doc said "Try prayer
to the Cliff with the Hair,
Or even Pope CWK2."

Oh no here comes that nurse again
She wants to stick that thermometer in my hairy rear-end!
I thought "Oh man this really sucks",
"This is worse than taking abuse from those OFC schmucks!"
And to think I used to complain about profanity and the OFC guitar spec requests
Now I lay here sitting in my bed-pan mess!

I'm here just laying in this bed
with unsung songs runnin' thru my head
I ask the nurse for my guitar, please
she leaned over and gave me an IV instead

Al lays in bed thinking, "All I want is my UTE"...
But all he gets is a candy striper with a flute
While he lays there thinking nothing is dandy
He suddenly realizes she's not a candy striper, but a stripper named Candy
Now THAT's dandy!

Feel better Al

Now that I see what can be done after 40 years of continuous practicing, I'm glad I too a generation off. Schroeder, if you can keep this thread going for another 10 years, I'll add my contribution then.

Rock and roll nurse fix Al's head
While he's incapicated in his bed
Instead of given him pills
to fix his ills
She gave him his ovation guitar instead

Ain't no pickin'
And I sure ain't grinnin'
This fever has visions
spinnin' and spinnin'
Ovation guitars and A '47's
More drugs please...
I think I'm in heaven

B-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-p........

(Sorry, Al. Thought all the great lyrics needed a solo break)

Man crashin’ in Room 3, chart looks pretty dim
Give him one more enema and at least he’ll be slim
Must work for the gov’ment, all the crap he’s givin’
Tho’ he keeps mumblin’ ‘bout an idiot who sells gear for a livin’

(cue to Cliff's chorus)

I'm poppin' this button all night long
Where's the nurse with my damned Darvon?
Come on baby, don't you look at me that way
Can't you see its gonna be a long stay

You may as well come and hold me tight
These lungs of mine might not make the night
Don't worry honey, I'm an Ovation man
My roundback will take you to the promised land

I'll tell you all about it, and it rhymes with "strung"
Oh no, looky now what have I done?
Come on baby, don't treat me that way
Maybe this isn't going to be a long stay

I guess I'm alone, with my roundback and my pills
Can't get no love to cure my ills
Well, no doubt about it. This is how its gonna be
They'll never belive me on the OFC.

I think this song is going to turn out to be as long as Don Mclean's "American Pie".

Al get well soon.

I was re-reading my contribution to this thread this morning...I have to say it seemed funnier and more clever last night. And I wasn't even drinking.

Oh well.

Everyone thought
Al'd gone round the bend
But as it turns out
He's on the mend

Oh, Al's on the mend...
Yeah, Al's on the mend...
So, we'll all hafta
watch what we post
Cuz, Al is on the mend.



Industrial strength meds
After sleeping in strange beds
No telling what he got
From where he laid his head

Oh, Al's on the mend...
Yeah, Al's on the mend...
So, we'll all haveta
watch what we post
Cuz, Al is on the mend.
