The Academy Blues Project - Typhoid Mary Lyrics

Typhoid Mary, you're the sickest girl in town
Oh, Typhoid Mary, you're the sickest girl in town
So, Typhoid Mary, quit spreading your disease around

You started slowly, but I watched your sickness spread
You started slowly, soon all my friends would be dead
Oh, Typhoid Mary, now patient zero is in my bed

I can't resist you, your quarantine I must break through
We've reached an epidemic, we'll have a pandemic soon
Oh, Typhoid Mary, like the vaccine I ache for you

When I heard you would serve in isolation
To make you pay with the rest of your days for the things that you've done
Well, I stopped dead in my tracks, and I thought to myself
I'd rather be bedridden with you than have a clean bill of health

I'm almost finished - your contagion's kickin' in
Your red-hot love, babe, sends a fever through my skin
That's right, I've got a fever, and you're the only prescription

So, Typhoid Mary, you're the sickest girl in town
Oh, Typhoid Mary, you're the sickest girl in town
Well, Typhoid Mary, quit spreading your disease around
