Shingle Jingle

[Verse 1: Brian]
Hi, my name is Brian, I have shingles, so I'm told
This is strange because this often affects those 60 years old
But shingles can be brought about by undue amounts of stress
Like if you're stressed about your job or your house
Or your bank account or bed bugs
Or the small amount you exercise
Or the political environment or gun control
Or the situation in North and South Korea
Even though they say they're no longer at war
But that seems way too easy
(exhale)

[Verse 2: Brian, (Laura)]
Shingles are very painful which is bad if you forget
Some people ask to see them which they usually regret
My doctor gave me pills and told me I should get some rest
And to burn sage in my apartment to make sure the ghosts were addressed
And to stay away from the number six
And to pass a cat under a bridge
And to tie a leek to the affected sores
But mostly just to sleep
(Dance break!)
Ughhhh, okay

[Outro: Brian, (Laura)]
Oh! Oh, ow!
(Oh my god!)
Oooooo!
(I'm so sorry!)
That was right on the shingle
(Should I get the ointment? I'm so sorry)
No! I'm just
(Oh god, I totally forgot, I'm sorry)
Can you get the leek for me?
(Yeah, I'll get the leek)
