If the guy is really 61 who's having this operation I sure don't envy him. I've heard it's really hard on mature folks who have it done. Actually, when I was 15 and having one of several knee operations, there was a 250 pound guy (six foot seven), a salvage diver on Lake Michigan, in the other bed in the hospital room. He was having his tonsils out and cried like a baby all night afterwards. I guess I learned then that life can be painful even after you reach twenty-one. All I recall from having 'em out myself was being nauseated by my mother's perfune after I came out from under the anesthesia----that and burning pain that even ice cream didn't help.

As far as songs go, I once heard one a long time ago called "You're A Big Pain In The Neck". I'd think that just might be the tune you are searching for.
