Morgellons Disease, for those unfamiliar with it, is a highly mysterious disorder. Those who say they are afflicted with it report bizarre skin lesions with peculiar fibers emerging from them. They believe it is caused by a new and/or unexplained infectious agent, and are displeased with the doubters who think 'Morgellons" is merely a new name for an old problem, Delusional Parasitosis.

As the movement battles for acceptance, it could use a good theme song, and Morgies (as some call themselves) [appear to have found one](http://www.cherokeechas.com/music.htm).

The song title to click on is “Doctor, Doctor” but I think “The Morgellons Blues” is catchier. By any name, it’s a great song.

Enjoy.
