When a Gen X’er complains,
Of too much stress and worry,
And of acute overwork
Why does this said rent-a-doc,
Not prescribe the following,
One hundred percent guaranteed cure? :
Patient to sit alone in a dark room,
On a comfy bed or highly cushioned chair,
Sip a beverage of choice intermittently,
While Listening to 80s/90s CDs,
All on a quality component hi-fi stereo.
If pain persists beyond the first two hours,
Patient is to crank out their vinyl records,
And or cassette tapes if needed,
Open another beverage,
The mind will calm believing it’s not yet 1999
