Head is pounding
Eyes are teary
Nose is runny
Throat is burning
Lungs are ablaze
Joints are painful
Body got the chills
Cramps are no fun
Coughing, sneezing
Dribbling and spluttering
Tissue box by my side
Swinging slowly in the hammock
Swallowing pills and mint tea
I take it easy,
There's no other way
Dog checks on me
Doesn't understand
Why I don't play
Why there's no walk
I've got the flu.
