lyrics

This ancient Chinese healin’ has been passed around for years.
Unfortunately, in the States it’s quite new
But I’ve taken two semesters at the tech school here in town
And I can’t wait to get acupunturin’ you.
Most people haven’t heard yet of the acupuncture/rolf combination. It’s sort of East meets West with some Tai Chi thrown in the stew

Big needle, yes, but I know that you’ll suffer less you see
Because the smaller needles are less familiar to me.
Feel that? I bet that doesn’t feel to good, huh?
Well, you know what they say Buckaroo,
“Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional”
Now how ‘bout a little rolfin’?
Ha! Ha! AAAAHHHHH! Yeah...

You’ll be in agony for a few weeks
And throwing up in a hundred different ways,
But that’s normal when you’ve been studying
Ancient Chinese medicine for only fourteen days.
