Hey Jeremy, I’ve got Lyme
Borrelia deep inside my mind
Hey Jeremy, hey Jeremy
Hey Jeremy, I’ve got Lyme
And I’m not one of a kind
Hey Jeremy, hey Jeremy
Hey Jeremy, I’ve got Lyme
And I’m really in a bind
Hey Jeremy, hey Jeremy
Hey Jeremy, I’ve got Lyme
No I’m not out of my mind
Hey Jeremy
Hey, Jeremy
I’m suffering from a plight
So listen to my song
You think you've got it right
But I KNOW you've got it wrong
So stop and listen tight
Coz I really need your help, Jeremy
Aussie ticks have Lyme
Though I know you think they don’t
We want the government to help
But so far, they won’t
Lymies and their families feel so alone, Jeremy
Oh, Jeremy, what a pity
Our government won’t understand
By denying my diagnosis
My life is in their hands
Oh, Jeremy, you can help us
Can't you understand
We need action from you, Jeremy
It’s time to ‘DO’, Jeremy, ‘DO’, Jeremy
Not just plain talk Jeremy
Hey, Jeremy
It’s time to take the lead
Coz something must be done
Patients are in despair;
Lyme’s a loaded gun
You can change our lives
So don't say no, Jeremy
Our doctors need educating
In every Lyme aspect
Testing and treatment
Coz we deserve some respect
We’re sick of being turned away with rolling eyes, Jeremy
Oh, Jeremy, what a pity
Our government won’t understand
By denying my diagnosis
My life is in their hands
Oh, Jeremy, don’t you know
We’re way behind other lands
We’ll never catch up, Jeremy
If you don’t ‘DO’, Jeremy, ‘DO’, Jeremy
Move on from talk Jeremy
Chorus
Hey Jeremy, I’ve got Lyme
Borellia deep inside my mind
Hey Jeremy, hey Jeremy
Hey Jeremy, I’ve got Lyme
And I’m not one of a kind
Hey Jeremy, hey Jeremy
Hey Jeremy, I’ve got Lyme
And I’m really in a bind
Hey Jeremy, hey Jeremy
Hey Jeremy, I’ve got Lyme
No I’m not out of my mind
Hey Jeremy
Oh, Jeremy, what a pity
Our government won’t understand
By denying my diagnosis
My life is in their hands
Oh Jeremy, time to
Get your head out of the sand
It’s time to be true, Jeremy
Lyme is taboo Jeremy, taboo, Jeremy
Time to break through, Jeremy
Oh, Jeremy, what a pity
Our government won’t understand
By denying my diagnosis
My life is in your their hands
Oh, Jeremy, use your power
It’s time to take a stand
Your staff follow you, Jeremy
It’s up to you, Jeremy, you Jeremy
Lymies are dying, Jeremy
Oh, Jeremy, what a pity
Our government won’t understand
By denying my diagnosis
My life is in their hands
Oh Jeremy, you know it’s true
We’ve told you about it first hand
Now’s over to you, Jeremy
See it through Jeremy, through, Jeremy
Don’t leave us suffering, Jeremy
Borrelia deep inside my mind
Hey Jeremy, hey Jeremy
Hey Jeremy, I’ve got Lyme
And I’m not one of a kind
Hey Jeremy, hey Jeremy
Hey Jeremy, I’ve got Lyme
And I’m really in a bind
Hey Jeremy, hey Jeremy
Hey Jeremy, I’ve got Lyme
No I’m not out of my mind
Hey Jeremy
Hey, Jeremy
