Lyrics

?Lascivious Itch?
Words and Music by Lisa Biales ©2005

You introduced me to your friend I didn?t know it was the end
Now you never come around I?m a forgotten hand-me-down
Well your friend is just so Sigmund Freud yeah he?s my new decoy

He?s got a funny little twitch that?s become a full-blown itch
You know he really knocks me out he makes me scream and shout
I just don?t know where to begin he?s gotten under my skin

He?s just a little paranoid and he acts so freak-a-zoid
Sometimes it festers and it oozes
A match upon the skin stings me like a brand new tattoo

Crawls around inside my dreams a psychedelic centipede
Burrows underneath my skin now it?s coming from within
And it really starts to rub me raw just like an old sea-saw

He?s got something I might catch but I?m afraid to shut the latch
Then it swirls inside my brain like cucaracha down the drain
You?re really gonna do me in you?ve gotten under my skin

I?m not really paranoid But I look so freak-a-zoid
Sometimes it fester and I oozes
A match upon the stinging like a brand new tattoo

You introduced me to your friend I didn?t know it was the end
Now you never come around a forgotten hand-me-down
Well your friend is just so Sigmund Freud yeah he?s my new bad boy
Well your friend is just so Sigmund Freud yeah he?s my new bad boy
