Formulary Time: Parody of Auld Lang Syne and Invitation

And days of auld lang syne, my dear,
And days of auld lang syne.
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And days of auld lang syne?

We twa hae run aboot the braes
And pu'd the gowans fine.
We've wandered mony a weary foot,
Sin' auld lang syne.

Sin' auld lang syne, my dear,
Sin' auld lang syne,
We've wandered mony a weary foot,
Sin' auld ang syne.

We twa hae sported i' the burn,
From morning sun till dine,
But seas between us braid hae roared
Sin' auld lang syne.

Sin' auld lang syne, my dear,
Sin' auld lang syne.
But seas between us braid hae roared
Sin' auld lang syne.

And ther's a hand, my trusty friend,
And gie's a hand o' thine;
We'll tak' a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.

For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne,
We'll tak' a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.

Formulary Time

Should old prescriptions be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should old prescriptions be forgot,
At formulary time?

CHORUS:
It's formulary time, we fear.
It's formulary time.
We'd like a cup o' kindness yet,
It's formulary time.

And, surely I'll cry in my cup!
And, surely you'll do fine!
And, we'd like a cup o' kindness yet -
For formulary time.

CHORUS:

You have us up against the ropes,
And picked our pockets - swine!
But, we've wondered just what is afoot,
At formulary time.

CHORUS:

We've all been addled by your schemes,
To save yourself a dime.
Our pleas to help us broad ignored,
For your bottom line.

CHORUS:

And, it's been planned by each year's end.
And, to us, a hand o' crime.
And, we'll take your bitter pill - fraught,
The whole dang time.
