Lyrics

the games you play in the field
design the fate that you seal
poison ivy will never go
if that's all you ever know

I've seen a lot in my life
gotta know what's wrong and right
when the world comes crashing down
you're looking up at the ground

(bridge) you come round think I'm blind
to the ones you left behind

(chorus) An itch, I just can't scratch
like that monkey on your back
run away come running back
you're an itch I just can't scratch

So go away and help yourself
put that monkey on the shelf
life might be badly bent
but what you get is what you sent

(bridge) you come round think I'm blind
to the ones you left behind

(chorus) An itch, I just can't scratch
like that monkey on your back
run away come running back
you're an itch I just can't scratch
