THE LOT, by                    
First Line: I've seen a specialist who thinks
Last Line: And next a specialist.
Subject(s): Physicians; Doctors


I've seen a specialist who thinks
He can relieve my ills,
Smooth out my complicated kinks
With neither drugs nor pills.

He has effected gorgeous cures,
At least to hear him talk,
Heals others' evils -- why not yours,
And makes the half-dead walk.

If I could choose -- don't think it odd --
From all lots that exist,
I first would be almighty God,
And next a specialist.
