Christine Lavin - Bring Back The Bow lyrics

Next person who hugs and kisses me and then says "cough, cough, cough, I'm sick!" Please see why I feel justified giving you one swift kick If you are sick you must not touch I can't stress this point too much I know you love everybody everybody loves you but it doesn't mean we love your germs and microbes too What to do . . . what to do . . . what to do . . . Bring back the bow starting right now if you're sick and touch me -- ka pow! Come on sick people, bow! Bring back the bow I'll show you how you're thinking, wow! let's bring back the . . . But maybe bowing is is not your style here's another move I behoove you to use when you're sick that won't get me riled just adopt a serious look think Nixon when he said I am not a crook then press your two palms together greet people with this if you are under the weather Na-ma-ste that's all you say it helps if you pretend to pray when you say Namaste Namaste will keep sick at bay chase colds away with a bold Na-ma . . . Maybe namaste and bowing for you are too formal here's something else you can do that's just a bit more normal if a sneezy person comes at you with their lips in a pucker scream "get away from me you sick . . . lozenge s**er!" Or say namaste and bow by now you know how if you touch me, ka-pow! come on, sick people, bow Yes, bring back the bow let's all kow tow how now brown cow bring back . . . If your head hurts your belly aches no hugs no kisses no handshakes starting here and now let's bring back don't make me have to smack you! let's bring back the bow p.s. The knuckle tap is OK, too
