The Bumps and Bruises Doctor
I’m the bumps and bruises doctor;
I’m the expert that they seek
When their rough and tumble playing
Leaves a scar on leg or cheek.
I’m the rapid, certain curer
For the wounds of every fall;
I’m the pain eradicator;
I can always heal them all.
Bumps on little people’s foreheads
I can quickly smooth away;
I take splinters out of fingers
Without very much delay.
Little sorrows I can banish
With the magic of my touch;
I can fix a bruise that’s dreadful
So it isn’t hurting much.
I’m the bumps and bruises doctor,
And I answer every call,
And my fee is very simple,
Just a kiss, and that is all.
And I’m sitting here and wishing
In the years that are to be,
When they face life’s real troubles
That they’ll bring them all to me.
