The Lyrics
Flu season is here again. Get your flu shot now and avoid the rush, not to mention the flu.
Hong Kong flu,
Not too very much fun.
Hong Kong flu,
Might be smartin' with some.
Hopin' you will infect few with the flu if and when,
But if you get the flu don't be down long,
You best get well again.
Hong Kong flu,
Very illish fellow.
Hong Kong flu,
Really wrecks your mellow.
No fun thing, cause it can bring you down and wreck all your toys.
And before you know it you'll be peeling wood,
You'll simply have no joys.
Hong Kong flu,
Not too very much fun.
Hong Kong flu,
Might be smartin' with some.
No fun thing, cause it can bring you down and wreck all your toys.
And before you know it you'll be peeling wood,
You'll simply have no joys.

Hong Kong flu,

No fun thing, cause it can bring you down and wreck all your toys.
And before you know it you'll be peeling wood,
You'll simply have no joys.
Hong Kong flu,
Not too very much fun.

No fun thing, cause it can bring you down and wreck all your toys.
And before you know it you'll be peeling wood,
