"The EDS Song" by Amy
sung to the tune of Kokomo by the Beach Boys
(sorry about the lack of rhyming...this is my first try at a song parody)
Surgeon, physician, ooh I wanna take ya
Neurologist, Endocrinologist, come on pretty mama
Falling, tripping,
baby why don't we go,
to the hospital...
Off the emergency room
there's a place called x-ray
That's where you wanna go
to get away from it all
Joints dislocated in the sand,
tropical drink melting in your hand
We'll be falling in love
to the rhythm of a loud MRI,
Down in the ER
[Chorus:]
Reumatologist, Gastroenterologist, ooh I wanna take you to
Neurologist, Endocrinologist, come on pretty mama
Dislocating and subluxing,
baby why don't we go
Ooh I wanna take you down to the ER,
we'll get there fast
and then we'll take it slow
That's where we wanna go,
way down to the hospital.
Bendy, that EDS mystique...
We'll take lots of meds,
and we'll perfect our chemistry
By and by we'll defy
a little bit of gravity
my joints get into fights,
crutches and moonlit nights.
That I-just-took-my-meds look in your eye,
in pain with a dislocation,
Way down in the ER!
[Chorus:]
Reumatologist, Gastroenterologist, ooh I wanna take you to
Neurologist, Endocrinologist, come on pretty mama
Dislocating and subluxing,
baby why don't we go
Ooh I wanna take you down to the ER,
we'll get there fast
and then we'll take it slow
That's where we wanna go,
way down to the hospital.
Bendy, I wanna catch a glimpse...
Everybody knows a cool EDSer
Now if you wanna meet the most awesome people
Hang out with a zebra.
[Chorus:]
Reumatologist, Gastroenterologist, ooh I wanna take you to
Neurologist, Endocrinologist, come on pretty mama
Dislocating and subluxing,
baby why don't we go
Ooh I wanna take you down to the ER,
we'll get there fast
and then we'll take it slow
That's where we wanna go,
way down to the hospital.
