The Lyrics

i'm gettin', i'm gettin' tourettes
i'm gettin', i'm gettin' tourettes

i call you on the telephone
my words get rough...no etiquette
i sometimes feel like i have lost my mind
cause i am dealin' with a malady as weird as it gets
i start to swear and feel no shame
quite dirtily, my thoughts expressed
there is no reining, right now, of my mind
and my words, so unkind, have described an act of sex
they described an act of sex

when i say, hey @#$% you, you know i'm gettin'
i'm gettin', i'm gettin' tourettes
when i say the "B" word, you know i'm gettin'
i'm gettin', i'm gettin' tourettes
you bet i'm feelin' strife
my words may cut you...cut you like a knife

i hope you don't mind...if i get ugly
its just i am uptight
what i say...is overly unrefined
it bites...it bites

when i say, hey @#$% you, you know i'm gettin'
i'm gettin', i'm gettin' tourettes
when i say the "B" word, you know i'm gettin'
i'm gettin', i'm gettin' tourettes
you bet i'm feelin' strife
my words may cut you...cut you like a knife

i lay quite a thread on you
it could make a...guinness record
i'm not as sick as supposed
my face couldn't get any redder...hope i get better

i once was bubbly...i'm despised now
i'm cursin' doubly...unsupervised now
i once was bubbly...i'm despised now
i'm cursin' doubly...unsupervised now

i'm in an awful plight
but it sure ain't meant to displease ya
just realize that i'm screwed up inside
hope knowin' that makes it go easier
i sure have been swearin', heaven knows
and it sounds pretty crappy sometimes
and i'm sorry that i'm so lewd
but someday, i'll be alright...give me time

and when i've flung..my cruel ad libbin'
don't be unforgivin'
when dirty words come forth, you see...it ain't me

when i say, hey @#$% you, you know i'm gettin'
i'm gettin', i'm gettin' tourettes
when i say the "B" word, you know i'm gettin'
i'm gettin', i'm gettin' tourettes
you bet i'm feelin' strife
my words may cut you...cut you like a knife

Alvin, I enjoyed this parody, as I have with all of your other work, and despite having Tourette's myself, I found this funny. 555 random exclamations of obscenities for you!

I know I don't pop on here and comment much. The fact I did tells you how much I liked this. Always love the "MAD magazine" style of cussing more than the real thing
