A Tattler's Tale

I DON'T KNOW BUT I'VE BEEN TOLD

(I don't know but I've been told)

THIS WEEK'S HOUSE IS GOOD AS GOLD

(This week's House is good as gold)

THEY'VE GOT A SOLDIER'S STORY TO TELL

(They've got a soldier's story to tell)

THIS ONE'S BEEN THROUGH TOTAL HELL

(This one's been through total hell)

While doing his job for the Army

A soldier comes upon a scene

Where a horrible mistake has been made

It's wrong, not right and not somewhere in between

As the world learns of the story

The soldier is suddenly sick

Is the ailment something legitimate

Or is someone, on his mind and body, playing a trick

And what of House's ailment

We've seen this stunt before

But anything is possible

Coming from the mind of David Shore

Have years of Vicodin caught up with House

And done his liver some harm

If he doesn't take this seriously

He may just buy the farm

But Wilson as always will poke and nag

Keep House on a somewhat straight line

As long as House behaves himself (not a chance)

In long run he will be fine

As much as I look forward to tonight

And anticipate it with glee

There is also a certain sadness I hold

After this, just seven left to see
