The Consultation

So you are having surgery...
It’s no big deal
Just a small little cut
And a clear liquid meal

Nothing can go wrong
Everything will be fine
But just in case
Here are some papers to sign

It’s nothing big
Just a simple formality
A real waste of paper
In all actuality

Oh you want to read them!
Well I guess that’s OK
You can just skim through it
If you need to be on your way

Well this first one allows us to drug you
You won’t feel a thing
Just a huge needle in your arm
Oh, it’s just a little sting

This one just lets you know
All the things we are going to do
Like slicing your skin like a tomato
And pushing lasers through

Now I’ve done this before
So don’t get all upset
It’s like learning to ride a bike
You never forget

So it’s been 11 years
I’m sure technology is the same
The tools might look a little different
And they might have changed the name

But again you’ll be fine
There is nothing to fear
Just sing your name there
There, there, and here

You still seem nervous
In no time it will be done
I could do this with my eyes closed
Oh, that sounds like fun!

Well I will see you tomorrow
Bright and early at eight
No, let’s make if nine
Tonight I’ll be out late
