Lyrics The Healthy One - Laura Stevenson

The Healthy One

Hey, you lucky kid
The others have come down with it
In the early stages, baby
So that means you have to watch them carefully
So keep them from running near the corner
When you are playing, play nice
And mind the nice lady three times daily
She’ll give them something to make it, to make it go away
And you complain, you complain, you complain
Oh deary, your mother’s got a fever
And clearly, your daddy’s gonna leave her
That leaves you with your little sisters, oh
And you know, they didn’t mean to cut you
Just had to see if your blood was sick, too
And it’s clear with all the critters weakening your sisters
And your system’s running quick and not as sickly as you think
And you will live long
You will bury them all in the ground
And your body will grow
You will bury them all
And you will live long
You will bury them all in the ground
And your body will grow
You will bury them all
And you will live long
You will bury them all in the ground
And your body will grow
It hurts to be the healthy one
