says the nice lay in the white smock with a voice so kind.
You climb on the monster machine and feel like a fly-
because it glares at you with a malevolent eye.
With a lot of clatter she puts the cassette under the spot,
which must be the seat of the complaint she got.
The lights go out, she disappears behind a wall so protective
and her voice floats out, both stern and effective.
"Breathe in, hold your breath, breathe out, don't move,
you must stay there until I check the proof.
With a big envelope under your arm to the radiologist you go:
will your fears be confirmed -very soon you will know.
This good man shoves the film under a bright light..
stares at it and you almost die with fright !
All you can see are black things with white shadows,
how he can tell what's wrong only heaven knows.
He points to spot: there is the problem -whatever else
with you it is all a blur and does not ring bells.
But you know he sees what he sees and knows what's wrong..
because his specialty he studied hard and long.
You know his diagnosis will help you back to health,
everything depends on what to your own doctor he tells.
Without his knowledge how would they know what to treat...
therefore the RADIOLOGIST is invaluable, indeed.
