My nose is running and my throat is getting sore
and I'm sure not sleeping like the way I did before
I think it's aaaaaaaaaaaaallergies
I hate these aaaaaaaaaaaalergies
these commercials make it look like magic's in the air
instead of pollen, grass and don't forget all that nasty old pet hair
I hate my aaaaaaaaaaaaaaalergies
G-d- these aaaaaaaaaaaaaalergies
Well it's not magic, you can't just pop one and then go about your day
the symptoms will continue till you think you'll go insane
because they're aaaaaaaaaalergies
we all hate aaaaaaaaaaaaaalergies
Ok, that's enough of that.
It's bad enough that all of these ads- for Claritin, Allegra, Benadryl, Nyquil, Dayquil, etc. all pitch the idea that you are one dose away from being completely free of symptoms and ready to tackle the world- or play with a puppy, though for the life of me I can't understand why anyone would want to do either. Here in the real world, medication is sold in multi-dose packages because it takes days of treatment to feel any relief at all. And if you're going to roll around on the grass and stick your nose into a damn puppy's fur, there's probably not enough dosage out there to really save you from yourself anyway. At least when I got my severe attack last weekend it was because it was 80 degrees and sunny and I took a walk. I didn't lick any trees or shove grass clippings up my nose, daring an immune response. Christ what is it with these people? We don't see people on insulin celebrating having their blood sugar under control by consuming entire sheet cakes. Why do we see allergy sufferers rolling around in pollen snorting puppies? Stupid. At least as stupid as my "song."
