"Cause [bein' sick] is hard to do."

One of my favorite songs is "Breaking Up is Hard to Do" by Neil Sedaka:



I love this type of music: predictable chord structure, simple rhyme schemes, and whiny, sappy, corny teenage lyrics!! I bought this song because I was planning on breaking up with my boyfriend. (Not Cool Apa, the boyfriend before him; he was the playlist boyfriend.)

Today I'm rewriting the lyrics to Neil's hit:

"[Bein' Sick] Is Hard To Do"

Do do do
Down dooby doo down down
Comma, comma, down dooby doo down down
Comma, comma, down dooby doo down down
Being sick is hard to do

Oh what's happened to our family?
Our home's a pot of misery!
It's an infection, not the flu
Still, being sick is hard to do

Oh my lands! My throat is tight!
My baby can't sleep through the night
O' please gimme another tissue
'Cause being sick is hard to do

They say that being sick is hard to do
Now I know
I know that it's true
It feels like this is the end
I do not know when I'll be breathing normally again

I coughed so hard, I lost my eye.
I feel so sick, I think I'll die.
Oh dear it's coming, I say "ACHOOO!"
Cause being is sick to do

They say that being sick is hard to do
Now I know
I know that it's true
It feels like this is the end
I do not know when I'll be breathing normally again

I coughed so hard, I lost my eye.
I feel so sick, I think I'll die.
Oh dear it's coming, I say "ACHOOO!"
Cause being up is sick to do

(Down dooby doo down down)
Comma, comma, down dooby doo down down
Comma, comma, down dooby doo down down
Comma, comma, down dooby doo down down
Comma, comma, down dooby doo down

Hehehe! I feel better already! *cough cough!* Sigh, oh good ol' doo wop cheesiness.

Here's a snapshot of today's sick fest:
