The Itch

Heavenly Father up above

Have mercy on me

After seven years of bad bad love

I finally got free

I don't mean to seem ungrateful

You answered my prayer

And Father if you're able

Don't let me do the same damn thing all over again

Chorus:

You get the fever

You get the itch

You forget about the mess you are in

You forget about the money, the lawyers and the pain

And do the same damn thing all over again

Almighty Father, great and good

You need to be in my shoes

You let me fall in love, just like before

Now I'm stepping in a big pile of the blues

But now the honeymoon is over

Let's not pretend

I guess I never learned my lesson

I did the same damn thing all over again

(repeat chorus)

Mother Mary, Father Joe

I need to talk to your son

He had troubles just like mine

And he was the chosen one

So if I ever go to heaven

Will that be the end

Or will I fill for some sweet little angel

And do the same damn thing all over again

(repeat chorus)
