After watching “Frozen,” this line would not leave my head:
Let it Go, Dr. Koh: The Truth Never Bothered You Anyway
Of course, this is pure satire having a little fun at the government’s expense. So, here we go:
The cover-up’s on your desk tonight
No patient care to be seen
A kingdom of obfuscation
And it looks like you’re the king
IOM is howling like this swirling storm inside
Couldn’t keep it in, heaven knows you tried
Don’t let them in, don’t let them see
Hide the truth with your buddy Nancy Lee
Conceal, don’t feel, don’t let them know
Well, now we know
Let it go, Dr. Koh
Don’t hold it back anymore
Let it go, Dr. Koh
Turn away and slam the door
You don’t care
What the experts say
Let IOM rage on
The truth never bothered you anyway
It’s funny how some bulls**t
Makes IOM stand tall
And the needs of all the patients
Don’t get to you at all
It’s time to see what you can do
To crush the patients and experts, too
No right, no wrong, no rules for thee
You’re free
Let it go, Dr. Koh
You are one with the devil on the sly
Let it go, Dr. Koh
You never seem to cry
Here you stand
And here you’ll stay
Let IOM rage on
Your power flurries through the air into the ground
Our lives are spiraling in pathogens all around
And one thought crystallizes like an icy blast
We’re never going back
Fukuda’s in the past
Let it go, Dr. Koh
And we’ll rise like the break of dawn
Let it go, Dr. Koh
Your perfect ruse is gone
Here you stand
In the light of day
Let IOM rage on
The truth never bothered you anyway
Thoughts About M.E. 
W O W — this is powerful and perfect, Jeannette. Very clever–poetic justice as they say. Let it go, Dr. Koh; The Truth Never Bothered You Anyway. Love it 🙂
thanks, ess 😉
Love it! It would be fun if this song got stuck in their heads and they couldn’t shake it out….lol
You have songwriting talent!!
well, it’s stuck in my head. just sharing the joy 😉
We just need one high-profile singer to record this….
I agree – Isn’t there any singers with M.E., or a singer with a loved one suffering from M.E.? I would think there is! A high profile person would be a big help in getting the word across about our very real illness!
The lead singer of Cinderbridge is an ME advocate…. http://cinderbridge.blogspot.com/p/cinder-bridge-faq.html
She even has a song about ME: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00BZCjVK_6I
That is wonderful. Thanks for telling us about it!
Great song! I found the live version – will spread it around.
“King of obfuscation.” So very clever of you, Jeannette! Send this one around the world, advocates, because “we’re never going back.”
Very cool! Thank you!
Wowzers! That’s a pretty catchy song.
Keith Jarret has ME. Maybe he knows a singer?
There is a fibromyalgia patient.. supposedly in remission that is a rock singer. She is an advocate… Her is her bands single “Flare” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15AMjCJqzDg
Reblogged this on Sunshinebright and commented:
Jeannette’s pure satire is poking a little fun at the government’s expense. You certainly are a many-talented woman! I like the idea of trying to get an M.E. patient or singing advocate to sing this song with your words. Perfect!
This is a little bit off topic, but I had to share. My daughters go to a performing arts school and not only have we watched the movie a billion times as well, but one of them performed this song in the spring show. I swear, it is so ingrained in my head that every time there’s a squabble in our house I bust out with it in song and everyone falls into fits of laughter. Thanks, Frozen. I loved your post 😉
Excellent lyrics here. Need to get them into a song with a melody and a few instruments — and get it up on You Tube and get out the word. We need a theme song!
