The Biopsy's in.... Positive I say Oh, that sounds great! Oh no, it's not I hear him state Now, just how can that positive word Be not the thing I thought I heard No, positive is the negative answer, It really means you've got more cancer So, positive means the fluid's not benign whilest negative would be a positive sign? (Dr's English I don't understand Sometimes it has the upper hand) So negatives a plus and positive's not Let me ask again, just what've I got? Yes, your IIIA stage I've had to upgrade, to the IIIB stage his words cascade Well upgrade's good, doesn't sound adverse Oh no it's not, it means it's worse So up is down and down is up It's like the half full/half empty cup 'Tis simply a matter of preception How can there be a misconception? (Dr's English I don't understand Sometimes it has the upper hand) The biopsy's in, to my wife I confide Her mirror cracks from side-to-side The fluid tested positive to her I state Oh Honey she cries that's really great Now, just how can that positive word Be not the thing she thought she heard No, positive is the negative answer, It really means I've got more cancer Positive means the fluid's not benign whilest negative would be a positive sign So negatives a plus and positive's not I'm trying to give it my best shot... Oh, there's been a change in my IIIA seems it's upgraded to IIIB now I say And up is down and down is up It's like a half full/half empty cup 'Tis simply a matter of preception How can there be a misconception Now my darling wife takes exception where are you going with this deception why are you tossing me this curve ball do you think it's a thing you can forestall? why don't you give it to me straight so we can face up to our fate I stutter, I stammer, it's not impressive Then with impish grin most excessive It's just like Parkinson's It's PROGRESSIVE !!
