Yeah -- maybe we could get Mr Steere and Co to contribute a song. How about:
There's no business like Lyme business, like no business we know.
Everything about it we're concealing, everything the market will allow.
Nowhere could you get our smirky feeling, when we are taking your final bow.
There's no people like our people, our guile, when we are foe.
Even with our guidelines that we know are mold, that keep you stranded out in the cold,
Still we wouldn't change them - got our sack of gold -- Let's go on with our blow.

On a dark desert highway, so full of despair, Pain wracking my body `cuz I'm having a flare. Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim. I had to stop for the night.
A doctor stood in the doorway, might as well have been a cell, And I was thinking to myself, "Man, have I really been put through h*ll". When the Western Blot came back, I thought I'd found the way. But there were voices down the corridor, I thought I heard them say...
Welcome to the Hotel Ducksville. Such a scary place, I saw Shapiro's face. Plenty of room at the Hotel Ducksville. Any time of year, you can find it here.
Their minds are totally twisted, they make you hit dead-ends. They got a lot of rich and pretty boys that they call friends. How they dance in the courtrooms, making the good docs sweat. Putting on the pressure, full of nasty threats.
So I called up my LLMD, "I need my Rocephin fix." He said, "We haven't had that treatment here since two thousand six." And still those voices are calling from far away, Wake you up in the middle of the night Just to hear them say...
Welcome to the Hotel Ducksville. Such a scary place... I saw Wormser's face. You'll catch your death at the Hotel Ducksville. They are so full of lies, these ducks I despise.
My insurance called me - "Two weeks of meds is enough time." And I said "We are all just prisoners here, of this thing called Lyme." Then in the E.R. chambers, The ducks gathered `round the keets. They stab them with their steely knives, But they just can't kill the beasts.
Last thing I remember, I was Running for the door I had to find the passage back To the health I had before. "Relax," said the IDSA, "We are programmed to deceive. You can checkout any time you like, But you can never leave!"

I visited your son's page.
music sounded really good.
The graphic was cool too.
I hope they are well enough to play when they want.
I know how difficult this disease can make engaging in one's creative endevors.

Cave, the lymenutters would greatly appreciate the possible donation of the "ticks suck" audio tape to the newly-burgeoning Lyme Hits CD.
In addition to its appropriate topic and prior touring success, a poor quality taping will certainly assist with the nothing plus nothing equals nothing equation.
Also, we could let our eager public know that we have multiple CDs in the works, but we'll just list the titles for now, since I think they also get the point across.
So we are now putting out a call for song title lists that could benefit the cause...

They have been on abx for about 2 years, and are getting alot better. But its been a rough few years. But they are grateful that they can all play (I think it actually takes their mind off of things)
They write their own music and my one son sings. Double click on the song "Message" you can hear it.
They are actually in the process of writing a song about lyme disease and the struggles everyone has to go through.
Their grandfather actually came up with their band name (he has LD also) But my son designed the logo (a lyme with tick legs and a bio-hazard sign) I think it looks kinda cool.

my gosh all this musical talent the likes i've never seen.
this album could go triple platinum or maybe triple mercury.
gosh we already have enough songs to fill the first cd.
now we need the second cd.
we could send steere a free copy to him ,nih and cdc. will have to throw one in for the IDS also.
so this is what happens to people with lyme . they sit in bed all day thinking up songs about lyme &steere.
you people should all be getting better on your single dose of doxycycline. how come non of you are better?????
Hey that could be another title for album 2:
"HOW COME WERE NOT BETTER"

Bravo, Lisi, to your three sons and family artistic endeavors here. I know what a challenge it is to do any of this with Lyme. Maybe our burgeoning Lymenuts site will inspire you all in your creative efforts. -- Robin

Lisi: i think we'll give your kids the copyrights to all the songs written by the lymenuts.
they can compose and sing and who knows maybe we realy can make a cd.
but no money to steere orIDS only LDA or ILADS ok!!!!!!!!
maybe we can get a top ten hit. we can give the best song to the fox reporter and he can run with it fox.
tony: pluuuuuuuu!!!!!!!! i wanna come kick you in the aws. man the eagles stink, i can now be a tampa bay fan right. i gave up all my rights today for the eagles.
the eagles song is great by the way. may have to be our lead song.
BTW don't we have anything better to do????? aren't we suppose to get people better here??? our ducks can't.
this is for moral support i guess we all need some,every so often!!!

Q - stymie and tonyz, could you post your song versions here for Me And My Shadow, and Till There Was You, so we could read them on this burgeoning site?
They are the original 2 song versions that inspired our fundraising efforts today for ducktor steere and his duckpond and I think folks would enjoy reading them here.
Also, I think we may need to consider hiring an accountant soon for the growing CD collection. Do put in the job description that we're holistic in our thinking and don't get much past the number 0.

To the tune of "Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head"
Spirochetes keep falling on my head
And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his
bed
Nothing seems to fit
Those
Spirochetes keep falling in my head, they keep falling...
But there's one thing I know
The blues they send to meet me
Won't defeat me!
It won't be long before Zithromax (substitute favorite tx) steps up to relieve me...

We could be planning merchandise to go along with the music.
I like your idea of giving away tick-removal tweezers and two weeks free abx to customers.
How about giving away small snack packages of our favorite spiral foods, like spiral pasta and cooked bacon, to be known as Lymebits?

back for its second performance:
Me And My Shadow" (feat. Jonathan Wilkes)
[spoken] [Robbie: (american accent)] Johnny and Robbie [Jonathon:] What you talking like that for, you're from Stoke! [Robbie:] I dunno but I can't stop here pally
Like the wallpaper sticks to the wall Like the seashore clings to the sea Like you'll never get rid of your shadow(LYME) You'll never get rid of me
Let all the others fight and fuss(LYMENET) Whatever happens, we've got us.
(Me and my shadow) We're closer than pages that stick in a book We're closer than ripples that flow in a brook (Strolling down the avenue) Wherever you find him(BB), you'll find me, just look(BUT DON'T RUN ANY TESTS) Closer than a miser or the bloodhounds to Liza
Me and my shadow (ME & LYME) We're closer than smog to all of L.A. We're closer than Ricky to confessing he's gay?? Not a soul can bust this team in two(ME & LYME) We stick together like glue
And when it's sleeping time(WITH LOTS OF PILLS) That's when we rise(VIAGRA NECESSARY) We start to swing Our clocks don't chime What a surprise They ring-a-ding-ding! Happy New Year!(MAYBE NEXT YEAR)
(Me and my shadow) And now to repeat what I said at the start They'll need a large crowbar to break us(LYME &ME) apart We're alone but far from blue(ANTIDEPRESSANT HELP THIS)
Before we get finished, we'll make the town roar We'll hit a few late spots, and then a few more We'll wind up at Stringy's and maybe grab show Life is gonna be we-wow-whee!(YEH RIGHT) For my shadow and me!
[spoken] [Jonathon:] Can we do that again [Robbie:] No, I'm too tired(WHAT A SURPRIZE) [Jonathon:] Please Rob [Robbie:] No, I'm swung out [Jonathon:] I'll give you some money(IF I HAD ANY LEFT) [Robbie:] I don't need money [Jonathon:] What about a cup of tea(YEH TINCUPS FORMULA) [Robbie:] Not thirsty(WITH 2 GALLONS A DAY OF COURSE NOT) [Jonathon:] I'll won't tell anyone you're gay. [Both Laugh](NO GAY BASHING,THERE WELCOME HERE TOO!)
Before we get finished, we'll make the town roar We'll hit all the late spots, and then a few more We'll wind up at Stringy's and maybe grab show Life is gonna be we-wow-whee! For my shadow and me!
THIS SONG SHOULD BE CONVERTED FOR LYME THEME SONG. docdave
and z-man's
Ther were bells on the hill but I never heard them ringing
No I never heard them at all till there was lyme! (tinnitis)
There are birds in the air but I never see them winging
I can hardly see them at all(floaters) since there was lyme!
And there were street lights wonderful magical streetlights that glare(photosensativity)
and music that blares (audiosensativity)
and people that stare!
When I miss my chair(muscle weakness and uncoordination)
since there was lyme!

We could have an online silent auction fundraiser for duckpond and company. Everyone can bid very quietly for advance Lymenut CDs. The starting/ending bid is $00.00, which should make for very easy participation.

One more idea, and then I'm off to work on a Lyme musical!
Was just thinking -- the Lymenuts, the Lymebits, the Lymenutters -- kinda sounds like 50s groups.
What if we had Lyme songs in the styles of the various decades -- how early?, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, and 2000s Lyme infection songs. Name of this CD: Lyme through Time.
It's for real -- people report getting bitten all through these years, seemingly most not knowing until much later what was going on at the time.
And don't forget Disco Duck.

Oh, Vermont, we're making progress here. Today we started with one Lymenut CD, with generous contributions pouring in!
Then we heard about a family Lyme band and an llmd "Ticks Suck" audio tape.
Now we're planning multiple Lymenutter CDs, considering hiring an accountant, planning merchandise and offering an online silent auction to raise funds for steere's duckpond.
I'm off to do a Lyme musical, and now yes, you suggest a Lyme opera. Maybe we could call it "It's Opera-tick" for now?
So far Vermont has suggested a lead character, disco duck, with I guess a chorus of ducks, and maybe another chorus of llmds to the rescue, and we need some more character and plot ideas to flesh out the opera, please...
Thank you Stymie for kicking off a highly entertaining day!

Wow, imanurse -- that's some cover! -- makes me hungry -- are you an artist, by any chance?
Hey, our little starting efforts today could turn out some good stuff!
Texas, was thinking about your Hotel California song -- great job. The first chorus line, was wondering about it mimicking the 4-syllable California word for easier singing.
First ideas: Welcome to the Hotel ala Duckville; Welcome to the Hotel, called The Duckville; Welcome to the Hotel, call it Duckville.
What do ya think?

disco ducks
dumbsh!t dumbsh!t ducks I don't need more dumbsh!t ducks
dumbsh!t dumbsh!t ducks IDSA hires dumbsh!t ducks
and then there was
I've got lyme under my skin
I've got lyme deep in the heart of me
because of ducks you're really a part of me
I've got lyme under my skin
I've got lyme under my skin
I've got lyme in every part of me
In tendons ligaments and cartilige
I've got lyme under my skin
The ducks say take two and come what may
At the risk of killing us all
but they're all paid by Hmo's and IDSA
So our backs are against the wall
we've got a petition for washington
and a bill or two in the air
but they're all paid off by big pharmaceutical
I doubt if they even care
Meantime my thoughts keep a spinnin
and floaters are wing'in
and people all round think I'm weird
They can't see my pain,twitches or hear the noise
That repeats and repeats in my ears
Oh my Gawd I hope I can win
cuz I've got lyme under my skin
Whew....
I'll do the other one tomorrow...nite nite(or good morning) zman

Can I join in? BTW...I loved the "disco ducks" comment! LOL.
Here's my donation to the cause to the tune of They Call The Wind Mariah):
Way out west when the sun goes down
A lizard goes a huntin'
And while it hunts, all keets are killed
and they call the cure melatonin.
Yes, they call the cure melatonin.
Melatonin has an indole bond
That bond is easily broken
And when it breaks, nitro's released
and they call the cure melatonin.
Yes they call the cure melatonin.
But we don't make enough it seems
to do what that lizard can
so we have to find another way
to release that healing nitro.
To release that healing nitro.
For when that nitro is released
It joins with lonely oxy
And it is that bond
that does the trick
To destroy that darn infection.
To destroy that darn infection.

Transylvania Tick (sung to Monster Mash)
I was working in the lab late one night When my eyes beheld and eerie sight For my tick from his petrie began to crawl And suddenly to my surprise
(chorus) He did the dash He did the spirochete dash the spirochete dash It was a graveyard smash He did the dash It was endemic in a flash He did the dash He did the spirochete dash.
From my laboratory in Duck U east To the faculty cafeteria where the vampires feast The Ghouls all came for their lavish abodes To get a pinch from my electrodes
Chorus
The zombies were drawing near The Party was something to fear, The guests included Wormser, Shapiro and Steere
Chorus
Out from his coffin,Steere's voice did ring Seems he was troubled by just one thing He opened the lid and shook his fist And said "Whatever happened to my Transylvania Tick?
Chorus
Now everything's cool, Steere's part of the band And my sphirocite dash is endemic in the land For you the living, this dash was meant too When you get to Death's Door, tell them Steere sent you.
" Yes you're unce .. tice... feee times a Lymie..."

I think the Lymenuts need a group of back-up singers called the Coinfections.
It could be an all-girl group, kind of like Diana Ross and the Supremes, starring Bartonella, Ehrlichia, Babesia, Anaplasma, Mycoplasma and Tularemia.
And remember, the big money is in merchandising. In addition to the CD and concert tour, we need T-shirts, action figures, baseball caps - not to mention the ever-coveted Lymenuts and the Coinfections picc-line cover!

The lead singers could all be wearing Godzilla Tick costumes made by Lymemomtooo and the back up singers could all be naked- cause that's the best way to check for ticks!

Now digitally remixed: "ME AND MY SHADOW"
Shades of night are falling and I'm lonely Standing on the corner feeling blue My wifes out for fun, leaving me home Guess I'll wind up like I always do, with only
Me and my LYME Caneing down the avenue Me and my LYME Not another soul to tell my troubles to
And when it's 7 o'clock, we CRAWL UP the stair We never knock, for nobody's there Just me and my LYME All alone and feeling blue
When the sun sets on the far horizon When the wall start creeping in BABS,ERLY AND BART, put their SHOES on They're all set. but we'll still NOT go, so lonely
Me and my LYME Wheelchairing down the avenue Me and my LYME Not another soul to tell my troubles to
And when it's 8 o'clock, we can't fall asleep We ask for help, but nobody's there Just me and my LYME All alone and feeling blue

Oh man, this group has outdone itself!!
And marnie's song even has a healing message!
Some songs just don't need much editing:
I'm so dizzy my head is spinning
Like a whirlpool, it never ends
And it's you, Bb, making it spin
You're makin' me DIZZY
I know I want Meryl Streep to play me in the Lymenuts movie! Even though I am not that old!
The LLMDs and Lymenetters can be a fine looking group, with Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom, Christian Bale, Scarlett whatever her name is, Judy Davis (add your favorites)
Steere will have to be played by someone with proper gravitas. Marlon Brando and Bela Lugosi are already gone, so it will have to be James Earl Jones or Anthony Hopkins.
Thanks guys for making my day a little bit brighter. Posts: 2557 | From home | Registered: Aug 2006

Hi fellow nutters -- this is so much fun checking on what everyone's doing here! Congrats on everyone's creativity -- our musical Lyme careers started here...
So, two touring groups(well, three if Lisi's family want to join in) -- the LLMDs and the Lymenetters, and the Lymenuts and the Coinfections.
The all-female Coinfections will develop a following as Bart, Ehrl, Babs, Ana, Myco and Tule. They could have as a guest Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever as a cowboy type perhaps.
You know, I know what the ketes look like, but not the others. Whatever that is can be incorporated in the dress style.
Oh excuse me -- if we take up Cobweb's suggestion, we won't have to worry about a dress code, and there'll be no problem with attracting an audience. "Now we'll show you all how to look for ticks."
I recommend some set designs to go along with each of the songs.
We can have creative Lyme drinks at the concerts.
Ok Vermont -- you plan the movie...

The all-female Coinfections will develop a following as Bart, Ehrl, Babs, Ana, Myco and Tule. They could have as a guest Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever as a cowboy type perhaps.
When I suggested the Coinfections as the back-up group, I completely overlooked the Country music potential of all this - and I love Country music! Thank you, Robin for rounding out the musical appeal.
I agree, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever will join the Coinfections, and Lone Star Tick will join the Lymenuts, for a rousing rendition of John Denver's "Rocky Mountain Lyme."

It is only fitting the LymeNuts perform a tribute to Hall & Oates, considering their brush with lyme.
Michelle
(changed only a couple words -- the rest of them fortuitously worked out just fine...)
Rich Duck
Sung to the tune of "Rich Girl" by Hall & Oates
You're a rich duck, and you've gone too far
cause you know it don't matter anyway
You can rely on the same grant money
You can rely on the funding honey
It's a bit@h girl but it's gone too far
cause you know it dont matter anyway
Say money but it wont get you too far,
Get you too far
And don't you know, don't you know
That it's wrong to take what is given you
So far gone, on your own
You can get along if you try to be strong
But you'll never be strong
cause
You're a rich duck, and you've gone too far
cause you know it don't matter anyway
You can rely on the same grant money
You can rely on the funding honey
It's a bit@h girl and it's gone too far
cause you know it don't matter anyway
Say money but it wont get you too far,
Get you too far
High and dry, out of the rain
It's so easy to hurt others when you can't feel pain
And don't you know that a love can't grow
cause there's too much to give, cause you'd rather live
For the thrill of it all, oh
You're a rich duck, and you've gone too far
cause you know it don't matter anyway
You can rely on the same grant money
You can rely on the funding honey
It's a bit@h girl and its gone too far
cause you know it don't matter anyway
Say money but it won't get you too far,
Say money but it won't get you too far,
Say money but it won't get you too far,
Get you too far

Any of you with teenage kids may like this one:
To the tune of Rush (Into the Rush) by Aly and AJ:
Into your head, into your mind Twitch in your eye, unexplained pains, You can't escape, you can't escape.
Into your life, into your dreams, Out of the dark, wish you could sleep. You can't explain, they can't explain.
You can feel it, You can feel it, Ringin' in your ears, Rushin' through your veins, You can feel it, You can feel it,
Don't let the doctors tell you, your life is over, Or that there's nothing wrong with you, Lyme really sucks now, But you gotta know how, Getting well will take some time.
You wake up, the world's spinning around, You can't lift your feet, off of the ground, You can't believe this is happening now.
You can feel it, You can feel it, Rushin' through your nerves, Rushin' through your veins, You can feel it, You can feel it,
Don't let the doctors tell you, your life is over, Or that there's nothing wrong with you, Don't be in a rush now Be careful of thrush, Wow, Getting well will take some time.
It takes you to another place, imagine hell, if you can. You start the drugs and herx again, You wonder if it will ever end.
You can feel it
Don't let the doctors tell you, your life is over, Or that there's nothing wrong with you, Lyme really sucks now, But you gotta know how, Getting well will take some time.
Don't let, the doctors tell you, Don't let, the doctors tell you, Don't let the doctors tell you, your life is over, Or that there's nothing wrong with you, Lyme really sucks now, But you gotta know how, Getting well will take some time.

Going on third page here! I am so impressed! Some songs I don't even know --makes me wanna hear them!
Obviously getting the songs recorded is the strongest way to go, but wondering also if the verses themselves could be published -- as long as copyright considerations are checked on.
We need a Texan country song for the Lone Star tick. Don't forget to include that it has spread, or been spread, to the East coast as well now.
Next up is...
This Lyme is my Lyme, this Lyme is your Lyme From California, to the New York Island In the redwood forests, by the gulfstream waters This Lyme was made for you and me.
A tick was walking that ribbon of highway A tick was falling from trees in my way A tick below me, there in the valley This Lyme was made for you and me.
I roamed and rambled, and in my footstep A startling brand of ixodes inserts And all throughout me, infection spreading This Lyme was made for you and me.
(PS I was bit on my foot)

Well, there is a successful Country band called Lone Star. It's only fitting that they record it!
Isn't the Lone Star tick disease referred to as STARI?
For all you baby boomers like me, there was that Don McLean song of "Starry, Starry night" which could easily be convered to "STARI, STARI night."

Robin...stay out of my mind....
Just thought this one up this morning....
Sung to the tune "I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy"
As I sit in a doctors office at someone who looks as bad as I do....and sing
....I hear by your symptoms that you are a lymie
answer
....I hear by your symptoms that you're a lymie too
duet
.We hear by our symptoms that we are both lymies
....If you get a tick bite you can be a lymie too!
zman How's that robin?

Docdave has said, I (Marnie) get to play Mr. Peabody.
Well...you all will get a chance to see my character on the big screen soon:
DreamWorks Animation announced in September 2006 that they are making a movie version of Mr. Peabody and Sherman, to be directed by Rob Minkoff
So...I'm a DOG who has ``adopted someone to have company in my life" ?
And Gi Gi (who HAD lyme and is still here trying to help)...is the "Nutty Professor"?
Not so Nice, docdave.
