text: Yo, check it out, let me break it down for ya,
  White-footed mice, they the ones that carry Borrelia burgdorferi,
  Infected for life, they the principal reservoir, you see,
  Complex infections with multiple genetic variants, it's the key.
  
  B. burgdorferi, it be spread through ticks, no joke,
  Multiple exposures or ticks infected, that's how it goes,
  Cloning and SSCP, we assessin' ospC variation,
  In P. leucopus, we studyin' 'em during one transmission season.
  
  At each time point, we findin' seven ospC variants in the mix,
  One to four dominatin', but they switchin' real quick,
  Consistency ain't their thing, they switchin' all around,
  Mice in southern Maryland, infected all season, that's what we found.
  
  Multiple ospC variants, they be comin' and goin',
  New ones introduced, while the old ones be blowin',
  The genetic profile changin', it's a complex game,
  B. burgdorferi populations, they ain't stayin' the same.
  
  So there you have it, the mice and their infections,
  Multiple variants, switchin' up their sections,
  It's a wild ride, this B. burgdorferi scene,
  Always changin', keepin' us on our toes, if you know what I mean.
