MMI
When the rooster crows at midnight, and at 1, and 2, and 3,
When someone’s in the bathroom and you really have to pee.
When your water bottle’s empty, and the water cooler too,
When you don’t know what you’re doing, and you don’t know what to do.
When you don’t know what you’re eating, but it still tastes pretty good.
And you’d like to take a nice warm bath, and if you could, you would.
When you don’t know what you’re saying, or what they’re saying back,
And you’ve been asleep an hour, before you hit the sack.
And you’re taking people’s blood pressure, and you cannot hear a sound,
Cause the diaphragm on the stethoscope is turned halfway around.
When you’re missing some clean laundry, but you have an extra sock,
And you’d like to take a shower, if you didn’t have to walk.
And the paper in the bathroom, is not for flushing there,
And your shirt and pants are wrinkled, but you really do not care.
Some friends we’ve make the last 2 weeks, may not be seen again,
Good friendships last forever, no matter where or when.
And the faces of the children say “Help me, if you can”
And you’d like to take them home with you, but helping them is grand.
And when you sing Alabare, as nights turn into day,
You know you’ve been to MMI. God works in wondrous ways.
