I’ve got neuropathy

Here is a song I found in the latest edition of Neuropathy Now. It is by Roy Bennett who also has neuropathy.

(Sung to the tune of “Making Whoopee”)

It’s 1 p.m.,
I’m at the doc’s;
I’ve taken off
my shoes and socks.
He sticks a pin in;
I sit there grinnin’ –
[COLOR=red]I’ve got neuropathy.[/COLOR]
[COLOR=red][/COLOR]
I’m on a date,
I’m getting bold;
instead of hot,
I’m feeling cold.
My feet are freezin’
and here is the reason:
[COLOR=red]I’ve got neuropathy[/COLOR]

When there’s a fire within me
should I feel glad or sad?
Can this be love I’m feeling
[COLOR=red]or just a nerve gone bad?[/COLOR]

She wants to wed;
I’m all aglow.
Should I say yes?
Should I say no?
Oh, how I tingle,
but I’ll stay single —
[COLOR=red]it’s just… neuropathy[/COLOR]
