I have what I think is a very funny song that I wrote that you're welcome to use, as long as I get copyright credit.  It has only an oblique reference to medcine, though.  I'd like to know how it comes off in public.  I'll be happy to send you the text.  If you don't want to use it, that's OK.  If you do decide to use it, I'd like a recording, if possible, but it's not necessary.  I just want to see how it works in public.  It would work with just a woman singing, but would be better if you have a male partner.  And a steel guitar, if possible.

Can't believe that you have never heard of 'Doctor I'm in Touble'!! I would suggest ' The Physician', a solo but perhaps could be adapted, and also the screamingly obvious 'You're not sick you're just in love' from 'Call me Madam.
