The Lyrics

I wrote this as a little anti-love song. DKTOS ratings may be high, but you're here now, so you probably know the song :) It was Dave Berry's biggest hit in the Netherlands, and it was used in an alcohol commercial (again with the alcohol...) I hope you enjoy it!
you've got this mange-effect on me
I don't like ya
you've got this mange-effect on me
I don't like ya
I shudder when you're nigh
your touch peels off my hide
oh, yes, you've got this mange-effect on me
I don't like ya
I don't like ya

and it's always when you're with me
-don't know if you see-
but this feeling is itching, I'm scratching
'til I start to bleed

you've got this mange-effect on me
I don't like ya
you've got this mange-effect on me
I don't like ya
feels like a thousand mites
tunnel my skin inside
oh, yes, you got this mange-effect on me
I don't like ya
I don't like ya
I don't like ya

Thank you, john. The first "oh yes" should really be a "yes." This was a small error :-]
