Analysis of New Disease
I know this will ease your mind,
You're the first of your kind.
Some how I knew you'd be pleased,
You've been named your own disease.
A meta bolic monstrosity
morbid curiosity
there is no treatment for you
there is no treatment for you
They've wasted such precious time,
as if you'll never die.
Try, dodge the red tape
but nor you and family will escape.
A meta bolic monstrosity
morbid curiosity
there is no treatment for you
there is no treatment for you
In need of real sympathy,
see the sick side, Dr. Apathy.
Take these pills and pass this tests,
never fear kids, Dr. knows best.
A meta bolic monstrosity
morbid curiosity
there is no treatment for you
there is no treatment for you
