I've Got the Measles

My face has polka dots

My face is covered with spots

How many are there - lots

I’ve got the measles

I’ve really got ‘em now

They crept up on me somehow

I looked in the mirror, and WOW

I’ve got the measles

I’ve got the measles

And I don’t feel well

Mom took my temperature

And she said, “Well

You’re gonna stay in bed

Remember what the doctor said

When you turn spotty and red

You’ve got the measles”

I guess I’m sick, all right

I’ve lost my appetite

I could not eat a bite

I’ve got the measles

This isn’t much fun at all

My dog has to stay in the hall

I can’t go out and play ball

I’ve got the measles

I’ve got the measles

And I don’t feel well

Mom took my temperature

And she said, “Well

You’re gonna stay in bed

Remember what the doctor said

When you turn spotty and red

You’ve got the measles”

My sister’s really hot

She hasn’t got a spot

She’d love to have what I’ve got

I’ve got the measles

She’s healthy as she can be

She’s going to school, hee-hee

I’m going to watch TV

I’ve got the measles

I’ve got the measles

And I don’t feel well

Mom took my temperature

And she said, “Well

You’re gonna stay in bed

Remember what the doctor said

When you turn spotty and red

You’ve got the measles”

My face has polka dots

My face is covered with spots

How many are there - lots

I’ve got the measles

I’ve really got ‘em now

They crept up on me somehow

I looked in the mirror, and WOW

I’ve got the measles

I’ve got the measles

I’ve got the measles
