Gelatinous Tubercles of Purulent Ossification
words and music by Ted Kirkpatrick

Unavoidable laryngectomy
Summon the E.N.T. M.D.
Is this the end for me?
Install the Western Electric number 5000
Creach modification
Nicotine addiction, larnyx benediction
Learn a whole new way to speak.

Physic's law number two
Every action that you do
Has a strong and binding force
Set in motion human course.

Your rainbow and the pot of gold
The dreams that you had grow cold
Your mistake burdens you a hundred fold
God knows our hears are weak
But we must learn to think before we speak
And consider the damage that we wreak
By choosing a foolish road to seek.
