Story Behind The Song
an old pirate I once knew had been drinking in the gallows with a gypsy nurse. She said "Whats your rank?" He thought she said "walk the plank." They laughed themselves to death. She, nursing him. He, nursing her purse.

Lyrics
Motion Sickness
Don't stand next to me
I'm, contageous
Look at my feet fly
ain't it outrageous?
I feel a fever coming on
maybe you can help yourself out
learn about this disease, what it's about
The Ocean, Love Potion, it;s all in the motion
It's an infection, can you see your reflection?
Do I have a fever I feel hot
no big deal just can't stand still
to be safe better not dance next to me
It ain't from movin
just take a pill it's from standin still
dance with me
can't stand still
that's feelin ill
come on give your feet a thrill
I know I willl
feel
down your back and into your legs
if you've got feet
or wooden pirate pegs
walk the plank
is he feelin dizzy?
is she wishy washy
better get the airbag
make your tail wag
papas got a brand new nag
ain't got no room for mello drama-mean
