Tickled

about

In real life, I am the younger child. This song is for the people who had to deal with little brothers like me.

lyrics

You get me,
you really get me,
you really get me,
you get me,
you really get me.

You get me right above the shins.
Try to hold back but I flinch.
You're testing me, testing me, testing me
to see what I'll do.
Yeah, well I'm trying not to lose respect for you.

You trigger the nerve 'til I twich,
like a finger lingering a little too long at an itch.
I go completely red.
You keep it up until I wish I were dead.

I wanna get you back,
but there's a part of me that never even really wants to be like that.
If I don't play nice, say nice things
I'll have to explain myself and that's one I never win.

You've got the David advantage
'cause you're the little one that nobody ever wants to see get beat.
And I'm trying not to fight like Goliath
and slap, slap you for touching my feet.
😠
