ChatGPT-The Diabetic Blues (Stick Me 'til I Bleed)
(Original Blues Song Lyrics)

(Verse 1)
Woke up this mornin’, feelin’ kinda strange,
Checked my sugar levels, they were outta range.
Doctor keeps tellin’ me, “Boy, watch what you eat,”
But that pecan pie’s been callin’ me sweet.

(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, my fingers hurt, they’re sore indeed,
Livin’ life one prick at a time,
Stick me ‘til I bleed!

(Chorus)
I got the Diabetic Blues,
Lord, have mercy on me!
Too much cake, too much booze,
Now I’m payin’ the fee.
Every meal’s a gamble, every snack’s a crime,
Stick me ‘til I bleed, just to toe the line.

(Verse 2)
Doctor said, “Now listen, son, you best behave,
Or you’ll be ridin’ in a casket instead of a wave.”
No more biscuits, no sweet tea,
Just lettuce and sadness—man, that ain't me!

(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, my fingers hurt, they’re sore indeed,
Livin’ life one prick at a time,
Stick me ‘til I bleed!

(Chorus – Full Power!)
I got the Diabetic Blues,
Lord, have mercy on me!
Too much cake, too much booze,
Now I’m payin’ the fee.
Every meal’s a gamble, every snack’s a crime,
Stick me ‘til I bleed, just to toe the line.

(Bridge – Slow & Moody)
I dream of donuts, I cry for fries,
But my glucose meter says that’s all lies.
No more candy, no more pie,
But I’ll be damned if I let good barbecue die!

(Final Chorus – Big & Bold!)
I got the Diabetic Blues,
Lord, have mercy on me!
Needles and numbers, bad news and rules,
This ain't how life should be!
But I’ll keep on fightin’, I’ll keep it in line,
Stick me ‘til I bleed, ‘cause I ain't got time!

(Outro – Spoken, with a Chuckle)
Now where the hell did I put that sugar-free pudding…
