Well, I ain't feelin' all too good...

--Ooh, what is it?

My bowels ain't movin' quite the way they should...

--Ooh, that's too bad.

I'm gonna take some Lomotil, that's for sure...

--Ooh, what is it?

It's a pill that stops ya but it sure don't cure...

--Ooh, that's too bad.

 

CHORUS

But don't feel sorry for yourself,

You ain't no worse off than anybody else.

Just stop your complaining, and grit your teeth...

Remember -- you're on Global!

 

Well, I ain't feelin all too good...

--Ooh, what is it?

My baggage ain't looking quite the way it should.

--Ooh, that's too bad.

And I talked to the man at the baggage claim...

--Ooh, what is it?

He just shook his head and said, "Your problem!"

--Ooh, that's too bad.

 

CHORUS

 

Well, my room ain't looking all too good...

--Ooh, what is it?

There's bars on the windows, and the bed's got a hood.

--Ooh, that's too bad.

And my roommates lookin' mighty pale...

--Ooh, what is it?

I threw a bucket at its head, and I smashed off its tail...

--Oh, that's too bad.
