Stereotactic, it’s fantastic!
Keep still now, this won’t be drastic,
Stick the needle in my breast,
It won’t hurt, it’s just a test,
Stereotactic, it’s fantastic!
They observe the screen,
but I’m not spastic,
“We can’t see, you have to stand, lift up your arms, move your hands,”
Stereotactic, it’s fantastic!
Needle’s deep, becomes erratic,
Left to right and right to left,
Feels like a knife inside my chest,
We are done, I’m sarcastic,
The cells returned……fantastic
