(2011)
I went to the doctor's feeling real sick
Like I had been hit with a ton of bricks
This doctor was an adamant firm believer
Looked me in the eye and said "You have Irish fever."
I looked up in despair and thinking this couldn't be
I vaccinated against everything A-Z
But the doctor looked up and said "This checkup is over"
And slapped me with band aid shaped like a four leaf clover
He said" I'll proscribe something you can't elude
To cure Irish fever eat Mexican food"
So I went to nearest Mexican place on the venue
I said to the waiter "Everything on the menu"
I ate and was very satisfied
And I felt Irish fever begin to slowly subside
But when I looked around folks were moving their hips
And Spanish lyrics poured over their lips
Then the owner ran out shouting "We have a pandemic
Mexican fever escaped from the clinic!"
I burst out that place before I could eat my taquito
Speaking in Spanish "Ay Dios Mio"
I ran to my school mate and I hit my knees
She said "Mexican Fever? Try some of these."
So I read that manga from beginning to end
Or from end to beginning and feel asleep to the trend
But it was nightmare when I woke up the next day
My whole room was plastered in Anime
The doctor took by pulse at the base of my hand
"These kind of symptoms are only found in Japan
We'll have to send you abroad to get the right cure
Meanwhile just drink water that's bottled and pure
The plane flew here and the plane flew there
To make a long story short the plane flew everywhere
I can play the ukulele and sign kangaroo
I can count to one hundred in Guajarati and Zulu
The Pyramids aren't cursed, I can read Hieroglyphics
I said Ja to everything in Germany and that turned out terrific
In the end I went home weary and numb
They say Russian fever cannot be overcome
But the nurse came to visit smiling with glee
Saying loudly that she had news for me
I reared back at the thought of any more prescriptions
I was losing my hair and ready to have a conniption
The nurse said "Relax now honey you just need some protection
You need the Irish vaccine to keep you from infection
If you had it once you can't get it twice
It's the kind of thing you get once in your life"
And if you are wondering how this is all ending
I won't bother to say, just start at the beginning
