The flu yes has landed
It did get me first
And then it claimed my wife next
She thinks I’m a jerk
For passing it on to her
Now by mother-in law dear
And son are now hacking
It seems very clear
That they have started with it
It will go the full rounds
We are all using kleenex
By the tons and not pounds
So a big pot of soup is
Now boiling on the stove
And jello and juices
I have brought in, in droves
I wish that this sickness
Would live up to it’s name
And flu out the door please
And don’t come visit again
