Brittle Bone Boogie Songtext
von Tom Eylenbosch

When I was just a little child
I had a lot of allergies that drove me wild
They made me scratch, they made me sneeze
I begged them to stop it, please
But they wouldn′t listen, they wouldn't stop
They made me jump and made me bop

I couldn′t drink milk, so the bones grew weak
When I move now, they crack and squeak
There's a small chance if I trip and fall
I might just break them all
I wrote this song to tell you that
If I fall down, I might end up dead

A brittle bone boogie
A brittle bone boogie
Oh, a brittle bone boogie
Oh, a brittle bone boogie
A brittle bone boogie all night long
If you boogie with me, you can't go wrong


I went to the doctor, he said: Son
Doesn′t sound like a lot of fun
I can′t give you pills because they won't do good
At least that′s what I understood
I said, doc, what am I supposed to do
He said, let's see what a little boogie woogie can do

Brittle bone boogie
Do the brittle bone boogie
Oh, brittle bone boogie
Do the brittle bone boogie
Brittle bone boogie all night long
Oh now boogie for me now, son
Come on now, yeah

There′s no feeling of revenge or hate
I kind of just accepted my own fate
I don't mind not that I chose this
I didn′t want to live with osteoporosis
Just get through, just move on
But until my day has come

I'll do the brittle bone boogie
I'll do the brittle bone boogie
Oh, the brittle bone boogie
Oh, the brittle bone boogie
A brittle bone boogie all night long
Oh boogie with me now, man


I′ll do the brittle bone boogie
I′ll do the brittle bone boogie
Oh, the brittle bone boogie
Oh, the brittle bone boogie
Brittle bone boogie all night long
And the brittle bone boogie will be my last song
Yeah
