Hypodermichondriacs

Hypodermichondriacs

Nurse and M.P.'s
Oh! the Wellington Public Hospital
Is where you see us now;
In an atmosphere of morphine
And hypodermics; Ow!
But the nurses are so pretty
So happy, gay and free,
That the Wellington Public Hospital
Is where we like to be.

Oh! the Wellington Public Hospital
Is such a happy place;
We eat and sleep and loll about,
A smile on every face;
But when it's time for visiting,
We all hop into bed;
If you see us there at other times,
It simply means we're dead.

Oh! the patients all are virile,
The nurses all are cute,
And as for regulations,
No one really gives a hoot
There may be one or two of us,
Who seem a bit distressed,
But the Wellington Public Hospital
Is easily the best.
