There is no escape, from the Bill-Man.

The Hospital “Bill-Man” Cometh

I was in the hospital,
Feeling bad,
The nurse walked in,
“Why, so sad?”

I feeling low,
Sorta blue,
I just don’t know,
What should I do?

You will be happy,
The Doctor ordered this pill,
It cures all things,
When you are this ill.

The nurse was right,
until I got home,
Not much room,
For me to roam.

From the bed,
To the big screen TV,
Hurting so bad,
And, no shows to see.

It was best for me,
To lay back in bed,
To stop the pain,
And sleep instead.

When I awoke,
The mail had arrived,
I saw a bill,
And too late, to hide.
