Muscles aching
Always on the alert

Always aware
of my friend shaking
Never sleeping
Never eating

I fall asleep for just a second
Crash goes my friend
I reach for her
but can't catch her

Lifting and bracing
my muscles aching
Finally she's on the couch

I leave the room
for just a second
she's shaking and twiching
She's dribbling and gurgaling

Quick thinking
Lay down a blanket
I turn her on her side
plop she goes on the blanket
I scream her name
and call the ambulance

Paramedics come
ring goes the phones
And in the ambulance I ride

Shaking, shaking
go all her limbs and head
so many siezures
I count 15 without stopping
Spinal tap
Now I can callaps
Thank god Tuesdays over
Time to get ready for work

My Heroic Act

Heart pumping
Muscles aching
Always on the alert

Always aware
of my friend shaking
Never sleeping
Never eating

I fall asleep for just a second
Crash goes my friend
I reach for her
but can't catch her

Lifting and bracing
my muscles aching
Finally she's on the couch

I leave the room
for just a second
she's shaking and twiching
She's dribbling and gurgaling

Quick thinking
Lay down a blanket
I turn her on her side
plop she goes on the blanket
I scream her name
and call the ambulance

Paramedics come
ring goes the phones
And in the ambulance I ride

Shaking, shaking
go all her limbs and head
so many siezures
I count 15 without stopping
Spinal tap
Now I can callaps
Thank god Tuesdays over
