Oh, we went out to a party
It was me and Ben and Mac
And before I know what happen
I get an itchin' on me back
Scratch, scratch me back
Scratch, scratch me back
It really is a fact
The less I itch, the more I scratch
Well I was quite embarrassed
'Till my two friends I did see,
Well they were madly itching
And they were screaming louder that we
Scratch, scratch me back
Scratch, scratch me back
It really is a fact
The less I itch, the more I scratch
Now dis scratching was contagious
And it didn't take very long
Everybody dere was itching
As dey join me in dis song
Scratch, scratch me back
Scratch, scratch me back
It really is a fact
The less I itch, the more I scratch
Well de host he got excited
Picked up de phone in haste
Quickly dial a number
And said "Man come spray dis place"
Scratch, scratch me back
Scratch, scratch me back
It really is a fact
The less I itch, the more I scratch
