…It Was Only A Tumour…


But It Gave Me Such Humour!!!

I went into hospital cos I had a little problem going on,
They said I had a brain tumour, now that wasn't fun!
I wanted to see myself, cos I was as curious as can be!
But they nurses said; ‘No! You are not allowed to see!!

But in the bathroom one day, now remembering this too…
I was that drugged up with morphine, didn't know what to do!
So I climbed on a chair, and oh what a fright!
I didn't know who I was, and I cried all night!

But the nurse asked what was up, I didn't know what to do!
So I said; ‘I looked in the mirror at me, you'd cry too!'
So she gave me a rollicking, and said that's not allowed…
And she sent me back to bed!  And I went, with head bowed!

Next morning in bed, the sun shone bright…
But I was a mess, hadn't had a very good night…
Well, you see, it's like this, I was fast asleep in bed…
But I rolled over and fell out, and banged my ruddy head!

So there they were, wiping my eyes, cos they were black again!
Oh woe is me, what a mess; I was in such terrible pain!
But the nurse that tended me, all night long by my bed,
Was a bloody male nurse, a hunk, it has to be said!

Well I tried to bat my eyes, but they wouldn't budge!
Then I poked one out, as I tried to give it a nudge!
So there I was with a gorgeous hunk, sitting at my bed!
I couldn't look into his eyes, cos mine were swollen and red!

But he did wink at me, and gave me a little smile,
And he said to me; ‘Cath, I'm here for a while!'
Well oh bloody hell, what a mess I was in!
I was all embarrassed, and it was all down to him!

But he never moved, he stayed at my side all that night!
And told me I was beautiful, oh blimey, he's not right!
So then I got to thinking, was it me had the tumour?
Or was it him? Cos he's nuts! Well I did hear a rumour!

Just take the negative from the positive,
And throw that negative away!
And we live and fight -  another new day!

As only you can do!
