You're Like A Permanent Flu

[Verse 1]
Can't stand lookin' at you,
'cause ya robbed me blind.
You infect my thoughts,
And still eat at my mind.

[Verse 2]
Can't get far enough away,
While you fester inside me.
You're another man's trinket,
While ya dangle my heart's key.

[Chorus]
Can't seem to shake ya,
You're like a permanent flu.
Been searchin' for a cure,
Don't know what to do.

Can't seem to shake you,
You're like a permanent flu.
Been searchin' for a cure,
Don't know what to do.

[Verse 3]
Ya sure played our time,
Like a seasoned actress.
Yeah, ya got what you want,
Pitchin' lines from a mattress.

[Verse 4]
I'm yours, my honey.
Heard too many times.
How many other guys fell,
In your siren-call eyes?

[Bridge]
Hacking cough, wet snot sneeze. Throbbing migraine, burning yellow pee.
I called the doctor, he was unsure. Said 'til you're dead and buried, it's something I gotta endure.

​[Chorus]
​Can't seem to shake you,
You're like a permanent flu.
Been searchin' for a cure,
Don't know what to do.

Can't seem to shake you,
You're a fatal disease.
I need a vaccination,
While ya do what ya please.
