Sitting at the doctor is never any fun
But when it takes the entire day, one can come undone

The appointment was at nine
We arrived at eight fifteen just fine

They called her back to run a test
We thought that they would do the rest

But, no ~ we sat in the waiting room
And soon we realized we were doomed

To be sitting there all day
We griped, complained, and had our say

Of course, there was no one that cared
In fact, they seemed surprised that we dared

It took forever to see the doc
In fact, until almost twelve o'clock

When he finally opened the door
His very short visit was a bore

He barely spoke to her or me
He didn't even take time to see

She told him that she would need new glasses
So he quickly to the nurse passes

Has her print out the same prescription
Now she has to make a decision

Should she go ahead and fill it
Or just give up and call it quits

I mentioned this problem to the nurse
As my mother grabbed her purse

The nurse quickly gave her the test
Said her vision was twenty / twenty, the best

So why then should she get a new pair
I don't think she needs to go there

What a completely wasted day
I couldn't wait to be on my way

When finally I was able to walk through my door
I couldn't rest, I had to do chores

If you go see docs you don't need
It will be a wasted day indeed
