One Out of Ten Doctors

Lyrics

I’ve had some good advice But it never sounds like fun Nine men with PhDs All ganging up upon the one They say, “nine out of ten doctors, This is what they recommend!” So that’s why I always find That one doctor out of ten! That one doctor, he’s my friend Never mind the other 9 of ten They always have to ask him, Though they know he’ll disagree, They know 10 out of 10 doctors sounds like BS to you & me So gather in ye close and I’ll share some things I ken: There’s things that you can do when that one doctor is your friend! You can brush with the other toothpaste, and you never have to floss Ye can ignore the list of side effects and the warnings on the box You can eat an Irish breakfast After a whiskey, to be sure A few stiff drinks in the morning Why do you think it’s called “the cure?” I’ve had some good advice But it never sounds like fun Nine men with PhDs All ganging up upon the one They say, “nine out of ten doctors, This is what they recommend!” So that’s why I always find That one doctor out of ten! In washington DC The surgeon general’s not your friend Who is that fella anyway, Telling us this is the end?! Go on and live your life, we’ll all go to heaven in the end Sure, the last time I read about a war or a battle that we won - where was the surgeon general then?! He’s no general, my son! I’ve had some good advice But it never sounds like fun Nine men with PhDs All ganging up upon the one They say, “nine out of ten doctors, This is what they recommend!” So that’s why I always find That one doctor out of ten! I mean, make up your own damn minds Who cares about those privileged men In their white coats With their white teeth And their perfect skin And their perfect house And their sailing yacht And their bank account And their smug grins and… Woah woah there, buddy. You okay? Yeah, I’m good. *pause* I’m good. You were saying? Oh right, I’ve had some good advice But it never sounds like fun Nine men with PhDs All ganging up upon the one They say, “nine out of ten doctors, This is what they recommend!” So that’s why I always find That one doctor out of ten!
