Hypochondriac - Rodney Carrington

Every morning while the world is waking

I’m still up and shaking

Holy god it’s a new day

Another chapter and a new affliction filled with fraud and fiction

The conviction death for sure

I feel sick catch my breath, and its gone

This is it this is death just hold on

Then everything’s fine

The panic it passes

And I feel a little crazy I was so afraid

I die for some foolish reason and I don’t know why

But I do know it sounds corky and queer

And I know that it’s hard to relate to my fear

You think go get some air get a drink and a spine

And get out of your mind

Ohhhhh

I’ve lived my life like this for god know how long

Some things always wrong

The song goes on and on and on

Cause if you can catch it than I’m sure I’ve caught it

Or at least I’ve thought it

Aids got it cancer got it TB got is bird flu got it sars not got it

But I’ll get it yet

Give me pills give me blood give me bed

Nothing helps all this shit in my head

Then everything’s fine

Birds sing in blue skies

And everyone’s happy everybody’s at peace

But me, I’m locked in a closet surfing web MD

And I know its all nuts;

I know that it’s true

I ask myself what’s the matter with you

Go get yourself help, get a shrink you’ll be fine

And get out of your never mind

Stop and look at yourself

What are you doing?

did you?

Never mind

This talking to yourself like this

This pills

This problem

This pity

Somebody please

Get me out mind

I want to look to the future

Wanna go buy a calendar I’ll actually use

Then how, wanna plan a vacation for six months from now

Wanna go and subscribe to a good magazine

Plant a garden and thrive and exit the scene

Wanna find me a guy who will never ask why

I hold him so tightly with every goodbye

And then I’ll be so happy I just might die
