What anaesthetists do

Okay, this is too good not to post.



The lyrics:
Everybody wonders what anaesthetists do
While the patient is asleep
Everybody wonders what we do for three hours
While that machine goes beep
Everybody reckons we drink coffee and we gossip and we're generally subversive
Everybody reckons we do crosswords and sudoku and we chat to all the nurses
But do you really think that's all we do
Oh let me tell you now isn't true

Cause we sometimes check the screen
And every now and then we write stuff
And if we have to insert in(?)
We inject a bit of white stuff [propofol]
And we often too alter the lights
Or the height of the bed
Or fiddle with the radio, change the CT
We even check the patient occasionally...
And if they move, we turn up the vapor,
And then we go back to reading the paper
Cause when the patient's asleep
We just sit and listen to the beep
We just sit and listen to the...

Once upon a time I took pride in my job
But now I think it's time to depart
Cause I just sit here everyday
And listen to bleeps of the heart

I got it from this blog. There are two other videos, one is the Drug Song, which reminds me of the Pokemon song (you know, the one with all the Pokemon names) and the other one is about a wonder drug called Paracetomoxyfrusebendroneomycin. They're good, do check them out!
