Oslerized 1905

I knew a man as patient as Job
no calmer lived upon the earth's globe,
they say he never frowned when riled
but was so mild,
he always smiled
till one day to a banquet he went,
the time has come,
let us lament,
for when Depew got off a joke,
Job broke his rule and spoke:

Gosh! That ought to be Oslerized,
it's really to the bad,
When Adam told his wife that joke,
It used to make her sad.
A million years from mankind's Pa
That's carrying a joke too far,
Gosh! that ought to be Oslerized,
it ought to be Oslerized.

A chorus girl once danced in a show
her eyes were fixed upon the first row,
And though "OldGotTheCash" sat there,
she didn't care for his grey hair,
and when the play was over that night,
Old "GotTheCash" 'most died of fright,
when out the stage door came the maid,
turning to him she said:

Gee! you ought to be Oslerized,
you're talking through your hat,
An old guy oughtn't want to fly,
Especially when he's fat,
A simple working girl like me,
can't use no man of sixty three,
Gee! you ought be Oslerized,
you ought to be Oslerized.

A doctor once was called to a case
to cure a lad who had a swelled face,
he jabbed the patient with a spear,
Looked down his ear,
and caught a tear,
then told the child
that all those great lumps
came from a sickness known as Mumps,
The Doctors' Union, horrified,
Raised up its hand and cried:

Say! he ought to be Oslerized,
he's way behind the times,
Mumps makes us smile a name so vile,
the modern school declines,
a doctor can't use words so tame,
now Scanderitis is its name
Say, he ought to be Oslerized,
he ought to be Oslerized.

Say! he ought to be Oslerized,
he's way behind the times,
Mumps makes us smile a name so vile,
the modern school declines,
a doctor can't use words so tame,
now Scanderitis is its name
Say, he ought to be Oslerized,
he ought to be Oslerized.
