Aloe, I Love You

(to the tune of the Doors' "Hello I Love You")

Aloe, I love you ‘cause you conquered my itch.
Aloe, I love you, it was making me twitch.
Aloe, from Calamine, you made me switch.
Aloe, my life you know you helped to enrich.

Mosquito bites or hives – 
It’s nice to know when the aloe arrives
You’ll get some quick relief
And a little respite from your grief…

Aloe, I love you ‘cause you conquered my itch.
Aloe, I love you, it was making me twitch.
Aloe, from Calamine, you made me switch.
Aloe, my life you know you helped to enrich.

You might have poison ivy
Or a rash from someplace divey.
A bout of chicken pox or measles, too – 
You’d get some comfort if you just knew…Ahhhhhh…..

That aloe helps to cool things down,
Turns your lips to smile instead of frown,
Just a little dab seems to do the trick
And its magic starts to work real quick.

Aloe – aloe – aloe – aloe – aloe – aloe – aloe
I love you
Aloe – I need you, baby
Aloe – aloe – aloe – aloe.
