Talking or Quacking

By tim | Aug 26, 2008

Stick me with a needle
or an enema propose
but don’t suggest I listen to
those medical talk shows!
The doctors are so ghoulish
they make Dracula look cute;
no matter what the symptoms
they prescribe some eye of newt.
Their concern is never with
the patient’s own welfare.
All they want to know is
“can we bill to Medicare?”
Talking on the radio
has never cured disease;
but if the doctors could,
they’d charge for shooting of the breeze!
