Allergies

[Intro]

Maladies, uh, melodies

Allergies to dust and grain

Maladies, remedies

Still these allergies remain

[Verse 1]

My hands can't touch a guitar string

My fingers just burn and ache

My head intercedes with my bodily needs

And my body won't give it a break

My heart can stand a disaster

My heart can take a disgrace

But my heart is allergic to the women I love

And it's changing the shape of my face

[Chorus]

Allergies, allergies

Something's living on my skin

Doctor, please, doctor, please

Open up, it's me again

[Verse 2]

But I go to a famous physician

I sleep in the local hotel

From what I can see of the people like me

We get better, but we never get well

So I ask myself this question

It's a question I often repeat

Where do allergies go when it's after a show

And they wanna get something to eat?

[Chorus]

Allergies, allergies

Something's living on my skin

Doctor, please, doctor, please

Open up, it's me again

[Bridge]

Maladies, melodies

Allergies to dust and grain

Maladies, remedies

Still these allergies remain

I can't breathe

[Chorus]

Allergies, allergies

Something's living on my skin

Doctor, please, doctor, please

Open up, it's me again

[Outro]

Allergies

Allergies

Allergies
