“Walking ’round with blue gloves on my hands.”

Ears are clogged, I’m not listening.
Hands and feet, they are stiffening.
     A real scary sight,
     My face feels so tight,
Walking ‘round with blue gloves on my hands.

Gone away are my lashes.
Here to stay are my rashes.
     I sting all night long,
     I try to stay strong,
Walking ‘round with blue gloves on my hands.

With our skin dust, we can build a snowman.
We buy Aquaphor jars by the pound.
     They say, are you sunburnt,
     We’ll say, no man,
We have the rarest skin disease in town.

When my skin is on fire.
Clobetasol I desire.
     I’ve hoped and I’ve prayed,
     That my rash would fade,
Walking ‘round with blue gloves on my hands.
