LIKE A LYME VIRGIN by Brad


written based on lyrics/music to
Like a Virgin by Madonna
​
​You-Tube link to song opposite.


I made it through the day
Somehow I made it through
Didn't know how healthy I was
Until I contracteddddd you

I was beat, chronically fatigued
I’d been bit, I was depressed and dull
But you made me feel
Yeah, you made me feel
Horribleeeeeeee!

Like a Lyme virgin
Infected for the very first time
Like a Lyme vvvvvviiiirrrrgin
Rest your PICC line
Next to mine

Gonna give you all my drugs, boy
My anxiety is fading fast
Been saving it all for you
Cause no more Lyme can last

You’re so Lyme and you're mine
Make me strong, don’t make me feel old
Give me back my life
Yeah, give me back my lifeeeeeee
This is not fairrrrrrrrrr

Like a Lyme virgin (hey)
Infected for the very first time
Like a Lyme vvvvvviiiirrrrgin
Take your Doxy
And you'll be fie-e-i-e-ine

Oooh, oooh, oooh

You’re so Lyme and you're mine

Won’t be yours till the end of time
‘Cause you made me feel
Yeah, you made me feel
So bad insideee

Like a Lyme virgin (hey)
Infected for the very first time
Like a Lyme vvvvvviiiirrrrgin
Shot of Bicillannnn
In your behind

Like a Lyme virgin, ooh, ooh
Like a Lyme virgin
Coffee enema feels so good insideeee
When you hold me, and me heart skips beats,
           and I twitch bad

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Ooh, baby
Cant you hear my heart arrhythmias
For the very first time?
