I.D.S.A. by Village Idiots
Carol B
Carol,
You and I must have been having a mind-meld. Just moments ago, I was blow-drying my hair, when suddenly the song YMCA popped into my head out of nowhere.
Figuring I was just having some blow-dryer induced musical hallucination, I didn't think anything of it. But then, I thought - the Lymenuts - this would be perfect.
I raced to the computer with half-wet hair (yes, risking electrocution), logged on, and there was your spectacularly written song. You did a great job!!!
And it just calls for some wonderful choreography.
The question is, are we going to dress up like the Village People, but still wear our tutus over the costumes?
Thanks for the great laugh!
Jill

I absentmindedly typed in www.lymenuts.org and to my great surprise, discovered that we've been beaten to the punch --
one of the first entries there lets you know there's been a Nut Lady with a Nut Museum in the town of Old Lyme -- she is Elizabeth Tashjian, she's 93 yrs old now and still nuts evidently and she sings her own self-penned nut songs. She had an exhibit called Nuts in the Limelight -- I kid you not!
We must have been channeling her...In a lymenutshell, how psychic can you get? Lymenut Culturists, that's what we be...
Buying someone's URL or name if trademarked (I doubt hers is) can be expensive.
Let's invite her to join our Lymenut - she can be one of the Coinfections back-up singers and wear a lovely tutu!
Who could turn down an offer like that?....
Jill
Not a bad idea! Anybody contact her yet?
What are the chances that she really could have lyme disease being from Old Lyme, CT?

Wait a minute, wait a minute, This lady is 93 and has a website- boy I'm impressed!

Singing the songs on this thread outloud is the best way to enjoy them. Also you exercise your diaphram and increase the oxygen level in your blood. (Lyme is anerobic right)
Some of the posts on this thread could cause you to laugh so hard you could benefit from laughter induced exercise and actually increase your oxygen levels.
Why not throw in that you would burn more calories, and increase your metabolism thereby promoting weightloss.

Cobweb, you're the first to submit IDSA. It's perfecto! I immediately ran to the mirror to spell it out -- had to work on the D to S transition...
I propose that when Lymies meet, we work out the song gestures. The S maneuver reminded me of squiggly spirochetes. It'd be great for a meeting break.
The Village ID-iots can still wear tutus.
Jill -- I know -- this song-finding thing has taken over my life for its own -- it's like a bacterial song infection. Walking down the street and ok, here comes another one:
There I was just a-walkin' down the street, Singing Do a ditty, ditty dumb ducky doo. Snapping my zingers and a-shufflin' to the beat, Singing Do lyme ditty, ditty dumb ticky doo.
The rest of it will arrive during my next walk...
MommaK -- I assign you the task of finding Elizabeth -- check with nursing homes in the Old Lyme area -- tell them it's urgent -- that we are seeking our lead singer since we're already thinking about booking our first engagement at the Limelight in Old Lyme for Positively Eliza and the Lymenuts. Ask if the nursing home can run her Lyme/co bloodtests for us.
Also, your explanations of benefits to be gained from singing our Lymenut songs could provide excellent endorsements on the covers of our CDs: Singing these songs promotes weightloss and improves health!

I'm thinkin we have enough CD's we could designate one for an aerobics class-Got that idea watching Robin work out the I.D.S.A in the mirror. What a hoot.

Carol,
I think we could put together a Lyme exercise VIDEO as an adjunct to the CD. Then we can sell it on late-night informercials (We Lymies have insomnia, we'd be watching!)
I lived in L.A. when Jane Fonda had her exercise studio there. We could open a chain of studios, proudly announcing 'No Pain, No Lyme" and wear our tutus to class.
And yes, I still have enough hair to blow-dry. But if my hormones and thyroid keep going down the current road, this may be a short-lived grooming exercise!

lymewreck have you read any of the post????? this started last week and still on the first page read thru it. there is a cd for sale but it costs $000.00 and all proceeds go to Steere et al. we have collected $0000000.00 to go to help lyme research by Steere.
you need to get out of the fog and read the post, its quite entertaining and WILL MAKE YOU LAUGH.

Here's the Beginning I'm-A-Lymenut Anaerobic Exercise Class Video for your ketes!
1) Let video just sit there.
2) If you have any energy left, stick it in the machine and watch however much you can handle. It depicts the life cycle of a kete, in real time.
3) Be sure to lie down the whole time.
4) Try not to breathe too much.
5) Fall asleep during the slow parts.
6) Say after me: 1,2,3,4; do we hear a little snore?
7) Wake up, don't sleep anymore -- you have insomnia, remember? if you can't remember, then forget about sleeping.
8) Say after me: 5,6,7,8; my energy, depreciate.
9) Repeat cycle.

I'm-A-Lymenut anaerobic exercise video for your ketes! This is too funny-but right on target. I have a suggestion though-to make it more rigorous I would suggest a rollover to keep circulation going, or perhaps a pillow squeeze once in a while.
Just a thought-that's mostly all I have these days-thoughts which very rarely make it into action.

Announcing the arrival of the I'm-A Lymenut Intermediate Anaerobic Exercise Class Video!
This intermediate anaerobic exercise video will help you to make slight efforts, but still maintain a reasonable anaerobic experience for your ketes.
This video begins with the division of a spirokete. (Remember, this is more advanced than the starter I'm-A-Lymenut Anaerobic Exercise Video, so you may want to work with the first one for the first couple weeks before attempting the intermediate video.)
PART ONE: Slight Repositioning
1) As our spirokete begins to divide, you may consider moving one of your limbs.
2) That's enough! You can relax now.
3) Let's try again. Consider that slight repositioning of all your limbs in order to (don't tell the ketes) improve circulation.
4) Stop! Take a five-minute break.
5) Ok, here we go! Choose direction of your choice, and roll, roll, ROLL -- you're on a roll -- you can do it!
6) Congratulations! You have achieved a slightly new position. Maintain new position as you watch the next kete growth on your video.
PART TWO: Pillow Squeeze
Requires an initial positioning with pillow between two limbs of your choice. If you have to make the effort to find and position your pillow, please wait at least ten minutes before starting Part Two.
1) As you watch your video's newly-divided spiroketes perform a slow push-off motion, think about squeezing your pillow.
2) Relax.
3) Ok, think again about squeezing that pillow. This time, say three times: "ATP pump, pumping up."
4) Upon completion of third statement, gently squeeze that pillow.
5) Relax.
6) Do steps 3-5 three times.
7) Very good. Now for the wind-down: say "Dump, dump, ATP pump" three times.
8) Take a well-deserved nap.

Bidding funraising history: we raised an amazing amount of zeroes for advance Lymenuts CDs, with all proceeds going to the ducks.
Bidding started at $00.00, went to $000.00, then $0000.00(which was retracted), then 12 zeroes, followed by a doubling to 24 zeroes, then a googleplex of zeroes hit the tickpot.
Ensuite, a googleplex bid of euros; entonces, a googleplex bid of muchos pesos.
Bidding is still open, especially for international currencies.

Hi guys,
LOVE the I'm-A-Lymenut anaerobic exercise video -- this sounds like something that me and my couch have been working on for some time!
I have been away on the road last week, touring possible locales for production of TICKS, the musical.
Many venues interested, theatre directors especially like the $00000..0000 donation to IDSA.
Robin, can we add this to the menu: wasn't there an old song, "You put the lyme in the coconut and mix it all up!"

Vermont, did you book TICKS! anywhere? Hope you told them we have a googleplex of zeroes in backing.
Yeah, the lime in the coconut song -- we oughta work that one out. Someone wrote earlier in our site -- can't find the post -- to a duck: Put de lyme in your throat, you nut, and swish it all around.
First runthrough(can be group effort here...):
Brother saw a ducktor nut, he thought it was a crime Duck mister told a little lie; we pay big for our Lyme.
I say, Ducktor, ain't there nothin' I can take, I say, Ducktor, to relieve this hella ache?
So Ducktor, won't you put de lyme in your throat, you nut, and swish it all around? So Ducktor, won't you put de lyme in your throat, you nut, and tell us you feel better?

Announcing the I'm-a-Lymenut Advanced Anaerobics* Exercise Class Video!!! Featuring the Lymenuts song hit I*D*S*A by the Village IDiots and Cobweb!
You have already begun your anaerobics exercise program with your beginning anaerobics video, and contemplated and managed small motions with your intermediate anaerobics video.
The Advanced Anaerobics* video requires you to manage some quicker movements.
Since this is a more active anaerobics* video, we have chosen to fast-forward the motions of the ketes for your viewing expiration.
(*There is current debate about whether this video is an anaerobic or aerobic exercise program. Studies are underway at Duck U)
PART ONE:
You may either be in a reclining or upright position as you sing along with the verse lyrics:
Young man, there's a need to feel down I said, young man, there's a need to frown I said, young man, there's Lyme in the town There's no need to be happy.
Young man, there's no place you can go Where they won't take your dough You can ask any duck, and I'm sure you will find Many ways to avoid a diagnosis for Lyme.
It's no fun to deal with the...
Ok, here we go!!!
Upon hearing the I*D*S*A chorus, you may just watch this first time through.
For the "I", notice the anaerobics* instructor bringing their forearms together to form the "I".
Consider the motion to be akin to a vertical prayer position, and of course the prayer is that you can complete the rest of the motions.
For the "D", remember(don't forget, you are facing a kete audience) that the round part of the "D" goes to the left.
Hold that vertical right arm steady as you form the round "D" by keeping your fingertips together and swinging the elbow of your left arm out to the side.
The "S": this is the letter about which there is the most debate as to whether it crosses over into aerobic exercise. Take it easy, just in case.
Remember, we are making a backwards "S" for our kete audience. The "S" begins with the right hand motioning the top part of the "S" to the right.
When it comes to the curve turn, let the left hand pick up from there and complete the curve to the left.
The "A" -- last one! Bring fingertips together and raise both arms up to form the "A".
Very good! Don't forget to remember that this first time through was just an observation exercise. Take a break before starting Part Two.
PART TWO: The Anaerobic* I*D*S*A!
Here we go!
Sing along with the verse. When the chorus arrives, Prepare your arms for the coming forearm contact. When the chorus arrives,
1)"I" -- Forearms together! 2)"D" -- Keep finger tips together. Bring left arm elbow out to the side.
3)"S" -- Right arm scoops top "S" to the right and towards center. Left hand scoops rest of the "S" from right hand center out towards left and around to center.
4)"A" -- Bring your lefthand fingertips to right hand fingertips and raise both up.
Congratulations! You have just completed your first runthrough of your advanced anaerobics* I*D*S*A video!
You may rest, go blank, do whatever you need to do for your ketes' comfort. We encourage multiple viewings of your I'm-A-Lymenut Advanced Anaerobics* video for best results.
*don't forget -- there is not current agreement on whether this video is anaerobic or aerobic. Data is expected within the next ten years.

Robin, you go girl!
Is this the Village People singing *I*D*S*A*
or the Lymenuts? Do we get to dress up as the Cop and Fireman?
Yes, many theatres are interested in TICKS -- some want to wait for the movie, but first in line for production are the Lymes in Connecticut -- East Lyme, Old Lyme, etc. Pride of place, I guess!

Yup, this is the Village People, with or without ticks.
You may dress in whatever garb allows you to perform at your anaerobic best.
Maybe we could get Lymemomtoo to start designing some costumes for TICKS! -- the cat-scratch chorus, etc.

SONG TWO OF TICKS THE MUSICAL
Song: Naming of Cats
NAMING OF LYME
The naming of a LYMIE is a difficult matter It isn't just one of your DUCK games You may think at first I'm as mad as a hatter When I tell you LYME must have three different names
First of all, there's the name that the family use daily Such as CRAZY, WACKO, LAZY or DEPRESSED Such as HYPO or FAKER, BURNED OUT or STRESSED All of them sensible, everyday names
There are fancier names if you think they sound sweeter Some for the gentlemen, some for the dames Such as BABS, ERLIC,BART, DEMENTED But all of them sensible everyday names
But I tell you a LYMIE needs a name that's particular A name that's peculiar, and more dignified Else how can he keep up his HEAD perpendicular Or spread out his ARMS, or cherish his PITY?
Of names of this kind, I can give you a quorum Such as Munchousan, Quaxo or WEARDZO Such as BORRELLIA,or else BOREDOM Names that never belong to more than one LYMIE
But above and beyond there's still one name left over And that is the name that you never will guess The name that STEERE INHUMAN research can NEVER discover But ONLY himself knows, and will never confess
When you notice a LYMIE in profound meditation The reason, I tell you, is always the same: His mind is engaged in a rapt contemplation Of NO thought Of NO thought Of NO thought Of his name ?????
His ineffable effable effanineffable Deep and inscrutable singular name

Song: Moments of Happiness
MOMENTS OF GRIEF The moments of GRIEF. . . We had the experience but missed the meaning And approach to the meaning restores the experience In a different form, beyond any meaning We can assign to GRIEF . . .
The past experience LOST in the FOG Is not the experience of one life only But of many generations - not forgetting Something that is probably quite ineffable
SUNLIGHT, turn your face AWAY FROM the SUNLIGHT Let your BRAIN FOG lead you Open up, enter in If you find there the meaning of what happiness is Then a new life will begin
SUNLIGHT, turn your face FROM the SUNLIGHT Let your BRAIN FOG lead you Open up, enter in If you find there the meaning of what DESPIRATION is Then YOUR new life will begin

ticks act 2
Song: The Moments of Happiness Lyrics
The moments of happiness . . . We had some experiences but missed our lives And treatment in our lives restores the experience In a different form,in a different body, beyond any understanding We can assign to happiness . . .
The past experience revived in the meaning Is not the experience of one life only But of many thousands - not forgetting, Something that is probably quite ineffable
Sunlight, turn your face away from the sunlight Let your brain fog memory lead you Open up, pills in If you find that they finally work You will remember what happiness is Then a new life will begin

Hey -- what about some rounds? Just realized we don't have any polyphonic lymesongs yet. A tick tsk on that. And we are now at page 10. Lymenut-ten along...
A-10------SHUN! -- Needs remedy! -- I'll start it out:
(Frere Jacque) My lost brain cells, my lost brain cells Where'd they go? Where'd they go? Ketes have eaten neurons, I am now a moron Lymie blank, Lymie blank.
My lost body, my lost body Where'd it go? Where'd it go? Ketes have eaten brunch here, also eaten lunch here Din-din too, din-din too.
Ok, next one:
(Row, row, row your boat) Oh, oh, no -- a tick! I am gonna scream! Verily, verily, verily, verily This is not a dream.
Yo-yo like a toy I am out of steam. Barely, barely, barely, barely meds my life redeem.
(I have not brought my specs with me) I cannot sleep, I cannot see I havent got my sanity It's ticks that brought my Lyme to me.
Ok, roundticksong gauntlet thrown down...

Ring a round the rosie
Pockets full of posy
Ashes, ashes,
We all fall down!
Sorry, I realize this children's song sounds a bit morbid in this context, and I do not want to depress folks, we have enough to deal with already!
But Robin got me going here -- and it is interesting to note that this common children's rhyme and song dates back to the medieval plague itself (yes, that plague, the black death). Welcome to the new plague! But thanks to antibiotics and all the good remedies and support posted on lymenet, we have a much better outcome then the original plague!!

What do you get when you see a duck? You get enough ELISAs to catch pneumonia Then with denials he'll start to phone ya -- I'll never trust a duck again.
What do you get from your HMO? You only get lies, pain and trials That's what you get besides denials -- I'll never see a duck again.
(Help!)
Back when I had my health, it seems so long ago I never needed any help from my HMO But now these days are gone, and I'm not so sure Misdiagnosed, denied care, I hope I find a cure.
Help me if you can, I'm going down And I do appreciate you being 'round Help me turn my HMO around Won't you please, please help me!

Oh, dear, what can the matter be? Oh, dear, what can the matter be? Oh, dear, what the...? -- IDSA docs say "so long" to our care.
They promise to bypass us if there's no bull's eye rash Then with their guile, oh they vow test not positive A promise to cure us with one dose of doxy will tie up our lives in despair.
Oh, dear, what can the matter be? Oh, dear, what can the matter be? Oh, dear, what can the matter be? ID docs, they're so unfair.
They promise to bring us a casket for Lyme/co's -- Some antibiotics for only few weeks goes too little, so that will set off all blue Lymies to pry up insurance fraud fare.
Oh dear, that's what the matter is Oh dear, that's what the matter is Oh dear, that's what the matter is On that we Lymies are clear.

I loved the mountains, I loved the chapparal, I Loved the forest, I loved the rolling hills, I loved the fireside When the lights were low -- Now there's ticks and now there's Lyme -- So wear repellant on your climb...

My best wishes to all for the holiday!
How about a Dylan song for the end of TICKS!
Forever Young (Forever Cured)
May God bless and keep you always, May your wishes all come true, May you always do for others And let others do for you. May you build a ladder to the stars And climb on every rung, May you stay forever young, Forever cured, forever cured, May you stay forever cured.
May you grow up to be righteous, May you grow up to be true, May you always know the truth And see the lights surrounding you. May you always be courageous, Stand upright and be strong, May you stay forever young, Forever young, forever young, May you stay forever young.
May your hands always be busy, May your feet always be swift, May you have a strong foundation When the winds of changes shift. May your heart always be joyful, May your song always be sung, May you stay forever young,
Forever cured, forever cured, May you stay forever cured.

Well, Steere Ticks must have a character that's a Klingon - as in the ticks cling on us!
(Sorry, bad joke)

It is difficult enough to ask a question without someone pointing out what you should already know people. Did read the entire post and laughed, but even though I read the beginning more than once, it wasn't registering. Simple question and simple answer please. ![[Wink]](wink.gif)
