Pre-Existing Condition - David J

The symptoms are classic as verified online

And I know you should never do that

As you’ll never come out fine

Cold sweats and palpitations

A sure fine sign

The shakes, the aches inside you

Let me lay it on the line

It’s a pre-existing condition

A condition known as love

And no physician can fix it

When push comes to shove

No remedy, no treatment, no cure, no antidote

No inoculations, no script, no doctor’s note

No soothing poultice, no balm to ease the wound

No opiate to dull the pain

Once you have blushed and swooned

It’s a pre-existing condition

A condition known as love

And no physician can fix it

When push comes to shove

It will render you incapable of functioning as you should

Bed bound with heartache, night thoughts and morning wood

And there’s no efficacious applicable medicine

The prognosis isn’t healthy

And you’re looking less than good
