When the cases get high... Hop a plane to the sky...

That’s Ebola.

When your fever gets high... and you puke pizza pie...

That’s Ebola.

Come sing-a-ling, come sing-a-ling, come sing-a-ling.

When the fever is high...with pain in your thigh...

That’s Ebola.

When the blood starts to flow...on a plane you will go...

That’s Ebola.

That’s Ebola.

When the world starts to spin...like you drank to much gin..

That’s Ebola.

Better to err on the side of caution than to take a chance and let it spread.

You’re right. Especially in those high rise apartment buildings in NYC - they’ll be de facto death traps.
