DANGEROUS DAN KERCHOO
A bunch of germs were whooping
it up
In one of the bronchial saloons.
Two bugs on the end of the larynx
Were jazzing a ragtime tune.
While back of the teeth in a solo
game
Sat dangerous Dan Kerchoo.
And watching the pulse sat the
light of his love, . .
The lady that’s known as Flu.
