They hatch in your digestive tract and then crawl around through your blood stream or muscle tissue. Do you really want to know more?

That's easy to explain.
There was an old woman who swallowed a fly, who swallowed a frog to catch the fly. . .(later in the song). . .there was an old woman with a worm in her brain.
Elementary, my dear Bisesi.

I will never forget the time we had dinner during their parasitology semester. There are some really, truly, ghastly parasites -- of which this would appear to be one. They often like to be near blood vessels, and the brain is a pretty good place for a worm to set up shop.... (Hint: don't be eating spaghetti when a med student begins describing worms.)
