Itchy Itch

I have an itch that’s on my back
It’s sitting on a little patch
It’s in a place that’s hard to reach
So I can’t scratch this part of me
I have an itch I can’t ignore
This itch I have I want no more
I need someone to help me out
Give me a scratch or I will shout
You're almost there, just go up higher
Go to the left, that’s where it’s drier
Please take it down a little bit
That’s it right there you found my itch
Just like a dog with many fleas
You helped to put my itch at ease
At last, at last the itch is gone 
At last, at last, I can move on!
