Remember my proposition of submitting a song parody based on the no-fault law? (see prior posts here and here). Well, I received yet another song parody. This song comes to us from one of my close sources, who wishes to remain anonymous.
“Cripple Creep” sung to the tune of Up on Cripple Creek, by The Band (listen here for the song)
When I get off of this gurney
You know where I want to go
Straight up the five line subway
To Bronx Borough Medical
Bronx Expert Radiology
Little radiologist that I once knew
And he told me just to come on by
If there's anything he could do
Up for DME he sends me
If I spring a disc he mends me
I don't have to speak my lawyer defends me
An insurance dream if I ever did see one
Phantom driver had just struck me
To the dentist I did go
He bet on TMJ
And I got my prescription to go
Odds were in my favor
I had the adjuster five docs to one
When that IME appointment came around
I was sure that I had won
I took all of my MRIs
And I gave that IME doctor half
And he looked at them and just shook his head
And I just had to laugh
Now there's one thing in the whole wide world
I sure would like to see
That's when that IME report shows up
And they try to use it to deny me
Up for NCVs he sends me
I just sign the sheets he pays me
I don't have to work he disables me
An insurance dream if I ever did see one
Loo, loo hooooooo . . .
Lodi, lodi, lodi hoooooo . . . . .
Now, there's arbitration out in Queens
And this massage therapy is getting old
And this living off no-fault wages
Is almost three years old
So I guess I'll call up my employer
Tell him I'll be rolling in
But you know, deep down, I'm kinda tempted
To go and see my chiropractor again.
Up for EMGs he sends me
Household help and mileage he gets me
I don’t have a maid but I get paid
An insurance dream if I ever did see one
Loo, loo hooooooo . . . .
Lodi, lodi lodi hoooooooo . . . .
