I love my veggies, yes I do, But now those veggies just make me blue
I like eatin’ that’s my game
But now that eatin’ just drives me insane
When my doctor said to drink more water down
I never even hesitated, I never frowned
I drank my water from a glass or a cup
Even when it some times came back up
The doctor said you’ve got dysphasia
Food never used to faze ya
Most of my life I showered on my feet
Now when I shower I have to take a seat
My arms and legs getting so weak
Some of those showers are incomplete
I’ve got the blues, I’ve got the blues
I’ve got the O-P-M-D blues
No more granola
I’ve got to say aloha
No more baked potato with the skin
Oh, tell me when you comin’ back again
Blues, I’ve got the blues
From my head right down to my shoes
Lordy, Lordy all that phlegm
So hard to swallow it causes mayhem
I’ve got the blues, I’ve got the blues
I’ve got the O-P-M-D blues
Dysphagia that’s the name
Dysphagia drives me insane
I’m so hungry, soon I’ll die
I’m goin’ to fade away and say goodbye
I’ve got the blues, I’ve got the blues
I’ve got the O-P-M-D blues.
