You used to call me Honey
You used to call me dear
Now go and wash your hands
Is all I ever hear
You used to call me darling
And sometimes Sweetie Pie
Go and wash your hands I’ll
Hear until the day I die
I don’t ask for much
I don’t have big demands
But I’m sick and tired
Hearing go and wash your hands
You know I have a request
In my coffin when I die
Put a box of good cigars
And a fifth of Seagram’s Rye
You won’t honor my wishes
You think I’m one big Dope
Instead you’ll put hand sanitizer
And Anti-bacterial soap
So when I’m up in Heaven
I’ll tell you what I’ll do
Every day I’ll be looking down
And watching over you
So before you even think about
Touching those pots and pans
The clouds will part
A voice will shout
Go and wash your hands
