A nurse! A nurse!
Could you, would you,
Find a nurse?
Is there a nurse
Here, or there?
Is there a nurse anywhere?
There is not a nurse
Here, or there,
There is not a nurse, anywhere!
Could you find one in a box?
Could you find one with a fox?
Could you find one in a house?
Could you find one in a blouse?
We did not find one in a box,
Or with a fox,
Or in a house,
Or with a blouse!
Is there a nurse in the rain?
Is there a nurse on a train?
There is no nurse in the rain,
Or on a train,
Oh, what a drain!
Sigh, sigh, moan, moan . . .
Say, you say, don't groan . . .
Is that the ringing of the phone?
If we want a nurse, they say
We must make a clone?
And wait for it to be grown!
A nurse! A nurse!
A nurse! A nurse!
Could you find one in a purse?
Could you find one in a store?
Could you find one knocking at the door?
Did you, Did you
Find any more?
We did, we did!
I do not kid,
A nurse we scored,
SHV was floored!
Who is that in the ambulance?
Needing equipment in advance?
A vent must be lent!
Have the trachs all been sent?
Is it a baby on a vent?
Baby on a vent? Vent on a baby?
Another delay will make us crazy!
A baby on a vent?
A Leigh on a vent!
When is the big event?
Tuesday, Tuesday,
Is what they say.
It is the big day, they say,
When our baby comes home to stay.
Big brother says "rowr!"
