When I’m sick I like to stay in bed
All that noise just really hurts my head
There’s not much I can do
When I’m sick with the flu
Please don’t ask me now to come
And play outside with you

All this coughing really hurts my chest
Mom says I have to stay in and rest
Please get me a tissue
Snot exploding, achoo!
Please don’t ask me now to come
And play outside with you

Germs, they squirm inside my restless body
And I’m waiting for this cold to go away

My temperature’s high
Reaches the sky, it’s so hot
Maybe someday I’ll learn to use a neti pot
Thermometer beeps again
Infected with contagion
Please don’t ask me now to come
And play outside with you

Germs, they squirm inside my restless body
And I’m waiting for this cold to go away
