That orange stuff made me hot I thought I'd burst into flames The longer I was on the table The hotter I became A week later the doctor called He'd received results from the test Nothing out of the ordinary A sigmoidoscopy is next I didn't like the sound of that "What is it", I asked, "Do tell." When he told me what they'd have to do I told him "Go to Hell." The pain returned and it was bad The test was really needed I thought it over, and grew up To the test, I conceded Wasn't as bad as I thought it would be All those unfounded rumors The doc said it all checked out No problems and no tumors We never got to the bottom Of this weird medical mystery It just remains an unanswered part Of my less than normal history
