How would different musicians sing about their mishaps?
About Musician Maladies
5> John Fogerty, constipation:
Put a candle in the window, ’cause I feel I got to move
But I’m stuck, stuck here on the throne, long as my bowels
are tight
4> Bob Dylan, laceration:
It’s alright ma, I’m only bleeding
3> Prince, indigestion:
Touch if you will my stomach
feel how it trembles inside
You’ve got the *BLEEECCCHHH!*
2> Alanis Morrisette, broken wrist:
I got one hand in my pocket
and the other in a pressure cast
From a hectic pace to a crushed in face and a broken skull
no longer round
A dangling neck in a bad plane wreck done made my life
go down
Ain’t nothing in the world like a death that hurled
Me down from the sunny and it sure ain’t funny
Made me feel real dead, made the ground turn red
Oh baby, that ain’t what I like

I was the quarterback (QB QB, he was the QB)
But my cousin gave me the sack (QB QB, he was the QB)
Now everyone can see (QB QB, he was the QB)
Bones poking through my knee!

Claim! (Claim!) Some guy drove through a red light

That Lizard will give me some cash! (Claim!)
