[Verse 1]
​'Cause there's a pain in the back of my chest
Superglued it shut, can't tear it out in a day
Feeling like Alice nearly all of the time
Nothin' seems to fit where it's supposed to or rhyme

[Verse 2]
What did you say to the vicar that made him smile?
What made him choke, splutter, and revile?
Think about those jokes that you told many months ago
So run away, faster than you can go

[Verse 3]
Make up your mind, make it quick
Stall in a sentence, choke up on your words
The world is mine and it is shit
Simultaneously indestructible and unobtainable

[Chorus]
It's like a pressure in the skin in the back of my throat
It's like a soldering iron on the spots on my skin
It's like an itch that you cannot itch
It's like a passion that will never be satisfied

[Verse 4]
What did you say to the vicar that made him smile?
What made him choke, splutter, and revile?
Think about those jokes that you told many months ago
So run away, faster than you can go
[Chorus]
It's like a pressure in the skin in the back of my throat
It's like a soldering iron on the spots on my skin
It's like an itch that you cannot itch
It's like a passion that will never be satisfied
