La Grippe - Squirrel Nut Zippers

There’s a flu bug getting passed around

And it’s Spreading like fire through the town

There’s a virus holding up inside us

Everyone that I know is coming down

There’s an Asian influenza

Infecting us all by the score

And it’s turning into pneumonia

We must go out once more

There’s a fool moon howling at the night

And it’s bark is much worse than it’s bite

So we must go out and dance around

Yes we must go tonight

So the doctors came on the evening train

With their flasks and their caskets and vials

Mass psychosis was their diagnosis (yes)

So we all cashed our checks and went wild

There’s a fool moon howling at the night

And it’s bark is much worse than it’s bite

So we must go out and dance around

Yes we must go tonight

La Grippe!, Salsa!
