1)
Doctor, there's something wrong with me
My head feels not all like it used to be
My heart is out of beat, i've got chill beans on my feet
My eyesight's getting dimmer, i can't see...

2)
Doctor, thanks for seeing me today - i'm glad
I've got every sickness there is to be had
I had whooping cough once more and today i've got the mumps
And tomorrow i'll get chickenpox as well...

Chorus)
Doctor, doctor, doctor make me well
I've not got long to go now, i can tell
Doctor, doctor, doctor make me well
I've not got long to go, i can tell
I've not got long to go, i can tell...

3)
Those pills i took had no effect at all
Just the other day i had a nasty fall
And i think i broke my jaw when it hit the kitchen floor
And i'm shrinking - last week i was 5 foot 4...

4)
I've been getting shivers lately, is it flu?
Another bug is going 'round, what can i do?
And it's bound to pick on me - i've still got the other three
Do you think if i got smallpox i'd get through?...

Repeat chorus)

5)
Do you think it's time that i made out my will?
I'll leave everything to you to pay my bill
Just how long have i to go? - please tell me, i want to know
But on second thought don't tell me, i'm too ill...
