For those who don’t know, I pay for my server space by working with breast cancer patients. One day in the car, listening to Ke$ha and Pitbull’s “Timber”, I realized it was ripe for a re-write as a parody of the daily struggles of the administration of chemotherapy. Enjoy!
“Chemo”
It’s going down, I’m yelling chemo
You’d better take your decadron
Let’s make a cycle you won’t remember
Some Benadryl and Ativan
Wooooah (chemo), wooooah (chemo), wooooah (it’s going down)
Wooooah (chemo), wooooah (chemo), wooooah (it’s going down)
Power Port, ECHO, get ’em done
I need these labs it’s half past one
Can’t sign this carbo, need a creatinine
Click the button, orders in–chemo
Premeds down, hydration up, chemo
That’s the way we like to what? Chemo!
Think we can get her added on?
She says she won’t, but I bet she will. Chemo.
Sling that chemo round and round
Middle of the day, it’s going down
One more shot, Neulasta now
Middle of the day it’s going down.
Sling that chemo round and round

Taxotere reaction, make it stop
Give her some meds, find the doc
Living in clinic, calls never stop
Triage is jumpin’, Jackie’s on top
It’s TCHP or you’re a—goner
Order me another round –Donna
We about to gown. Why? It’s about to go down.
Sling that chemo round and round
Middle of the day, it’s going down
