Lyrics:

Necrotizing Fasciitis/Necrotizing Fasciitis/So much pain/ React or be slain/ Necrotizing Fasciitis

Necrotizing Fasciitis/Dissolving don’t delight us/Pain out of proportion

I need a limb abortion/All from a sore shin!

I’m on the lookout when I see soft tissue/Is it going fast? Are you sick? I asked.

It feels like’s it’s a shark beneath the surface/The fascia elevator is at their service!

Oh no doc, is it do or die!?Why yes, TBH, lucky I’m your guy

Piptazo, Vanco, Clinda after cultures/ toxins swarming like in, like mini super vultures

What kinda mean bug got me through this wound?/First type’s a party cracking bubbly; stay tuned

Type two a hitman - strep pyogenes on your knees/ Or maybe Vibrio from the ocean seas!

<<What to do!>>

Call the surgeon in the middle of the night/Hey good sir could you join the fight?

What is the meaning of disturbing my slumber?/To Save a life. Glad you had my number!

CHORUS

When the surgeon arrives patient has less pain (of course)/ Is it effects of sepsis to the brain?

When I push he jumps not off the stretcher/Cutaneous anaesthesia is a late sign, I conjecture!

Youre a genius, hah, to the OR tomorrow!/Uhh good sir, but that could end in sorrow

Perhaps you could deign to operate stat/Steel and faciotimy would save him like that (snap)

We wheel him quickly down the hall/A little levofed makes his pressure not stall

Cut the leg theres necrotic goo/ compartments are relieved two by two

Thank you docs for saving my life/Everyone lauds you cept the ex-wife

No problem, mr patient, thats what we do/Watch for nec fash with soft tissue!

Ohhhh you got to save the day save the day save the day

Ohhh do serial exams you ll save the save the day

Ohhhh mr doctor got to save the day save the day save the day

Ohhhh give good discharge instructions for red flagsssssss and you will save the day

CHORUS!
