about

~ A play on ma'lady. She is one of the most infamous, infectious females in popular history. Although immune to the disease herself, and healthy, she unwillingly helped many to an unpleasant, early death. This is our story of Mary Mallon, or as she's much more well known. Typhoid Mary.

~ Caesar

lyrics

Assigned the new birth where the clovers seed.
So simple, yet so far from home.
On trial, with a bible held tightly in her hand.
But know that this story never,ever,ever ends.

She shone with a smile when we first met,
funny now how her presence left a mark upon my chest.
With ease, so cunning, and unseen.

Gone, but the ship's leaking,
Drops released back in steam.

She blames herself, in grievous health,
Infect all else - delirium,
Vaccinate, the one refrained,
and put away - delirium

She blames herself, in grievous health,
Infect all else - delirium,
Vaccinate, the one refrained,
and put away - delirium

This can't be me.

Cavities remain hollow. Ill effects of the curse we swallowed.
So burn this church, burn this town... Let the clover drown.

Gone, but the ship's leaking,
Drops released back in steam.

She blames herself, in grievous health,
Infect all else - delirium,
Vaccinate, the one refrained,
and put away - delirium

This can't be me, Self apostasy

Stillness, Engrossed
Sick son and holy ghost.
Sweet Mary, no fever showed.

In pulse. Divide.
Sick thieves and friends of mine.
Some lived, some never broke.
