Summer vacation, it was a blast
Summer cold, it happened so fast
Lack of sleep, not my own bed
Stuffiness, all through my head,
Summer days, sneezing away
But, oh, those drugged Nyquil nights!
Well-a well-a well-a huh
Tell me more, tell me more
Do you cough all the time?
Tell me more, tell me more
Is your nose filled with slime?
Tried to rest, but that didn’t work
Phone calls from telemarketer jerks
My poor throat is feeling so sore
Need more meds from the grocery store
Summer germs, now something’s inflamed
But, oh, those sleepy Nyquil nights!
Well-a well-a well-a huh
Tell me more, tell me more
Do you still feel like crap?
Tell me more, tell me more
Do you still need a nap?
A couple more days and I’ll be all right
I might wash my hair, not look such a fright
Think I might actually be on the mend
And this stupid cold will finally come to an end
Summer days, sneezing away
But, oh, those blissful Nyquil nights!!
*To the tune of Summer Nights from Grease. I probably would have done an audio recording for you, you know, if it weren’t for my cold…
Aw Diane, fun and clever variation on the old Grease tune but I’m sorry you’re feeling so lousy. Get better soon okay 💜Hugs from afar xo
