A doctor friend remarked that these were the most medically accurate lyrics she had ever heard. I wrote this to what I thought was the tune "Comet... will make your mouth turn green/ comet it tastes like Listerine" (taught to me by my babysitter) but apparently, this tune was better known, or at least known first, as the one from the movie "Bridge over the River Kwai."
