"Little Blue Helper" (Viagra)

[Mark A. Mandel]

Barry quotes the Stones:

>>>>>
And though she's not really ill
There's a little yellow pill
She goes running for the shelter
Of a mother's little helper
And it helps her on her way.
--"Mother's Little Helper," Rolling Stones.

Here's my own contribution to the genre. ("ttto" = "to the tune of)

ttto "Three Letters" ("When the day brings petty aggravations...") from _She Loves Me_ (Bock & [Harnick?])
Words Mark A. Mandel (c) 2000.6.6

On the brink of hyperventilation,
 Feeling nervous, petulant, and ill,
 To escape the morning's aggravation
 All I need to do is pop a pill.
 Psychopharmacology defends me
 From the slings and arrows of the day...
     Best of all,
     I can make
     Blue Cross pay!
