They Think They Know

People say that they know, Then she asks them is that so? Do you know how I feel? Do you measure every meal? What it's like to take a shot, At 7 o'clock on the dot? You don't know a single thing, Of the girl with a broken wing. She's limited on her food, Which puts her in a real foul mood. When her blood sugar suddenly drops, She all of a sudden flips and flops. She can't even stand up strait, She thinks that she might actually faint. You people think you understand, The most you can do is lend a hand. Diabetes is no joke, She can't even have a single coke. She and her mom worry every day, They wonder if she'll be okay. Her bloodsugar can drop really low, She can instantly become a real big foe. It can even go really high, She swears that it can reach the sky. So for the people that say they know, I ask them now, is that so?
