Lyrics
I am Doctor Mario and I am saving lives
I look different in this game,
I lost the hat, got a coat, doctor's light, stethoscope
I am Doctor Mario and I prescribe high fives
Laughter's the best medicine so Bah hah hah you fell down.
In the Mushroom Kingdom, I'm the finest doc by far
I got my degree by watching House and Scrubs and E.R.
Brightly colored pills! They'll cure all your ills!
Just as long as you've got fever or the chills
Take off your pants... good, now let's see...
turn your head and cough...
okay, now do me.
Please?
Does it hurt to pee? (No)
Is it hard to see? (No)
I am diagnosing you with HPV (Oh)
You've got mononucleosis, halitosis, scoliosis, fifteen days is my prognosis
You need red and blue pill doses!
You've got scabies and phlebitis, chronic rabies, hepatitis,
You'll be brave and you'll unite us then you'll die of meningitis
Wait wait... I'm wrong... you have... crabs.
Brightly colored pills! They'll cure all your ills!
Just as long as you've got fever or the chills!
Take it Floss!
Dr. Mario!
Presentation
Dr. Mario with Lyrics was originally a song by Brentalfloss, a popular uploader of videos to YouTube. His movies usually feature classical video game music combined with lyrics sung by him. For this video, he collaborated with DarqV, who had already made a video, Chrono Trigger: Musical, based on his music. Dr. Mario with Lyrics turned out to be a much better received video though. The movie's graphics are cartoonish, much like the Mario franchise that is parodied.
