does this happen to you?

My nipples itch.

And my brain is itching to remember the line from (or epigraph to?) some poem the title of this entry is vaguely calling up for me. It's two questions---as in "What price bananas? Are you my Angel?"---but it's something like "Did this happen to you? Did your somethings something?" I kinda have the notion the 2nd question refers to a family thing. And that a feeling of craziness is referenced.

Not enough to go on for ya'll poetry people, I suppose...

yeah, that one i knew

i also like the line in "America" that might be considered related:

"When can I go into the supermarket and buy what I need with my good looks?"

Perhaps you're thinking of the song "Pop Life" by Prince? "What's the matter with your life? Is poverty bringing you down? Is the mailman jerkin' you around? Put your million-dollar check in someone else's box, baby?"

Nope, but I like that string o' questions.

Mine sometimes itch as well.
