Triple Sick
Harold, Harold, what are those lumps?
Oh fudge Harold, you've got the mumps!
Harold, Harold, you're as sick as a fox!
Poor old Hal has the chicken pox.
Harold, Harold, look at those spots!
You have the measles too; you're covered with dots!
Harold, Harold, stand where it's sunny;
I want to take your picture cause you look so funny.
