The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
Ah, the itchy flakes, it is inflaming
To the gels and creams, it is pertaining
To a fungus mold is my injection
Hope it's only a, a yeast infection
Only hurts when I
Hurts when I pee
Oh well, it hurts when I
Hurts when I sing
Now I vomit cum and diarrhea
On the tile floor like oatmeal pizza
With a toilet bowl full of a cloudy pus
I feel my blood becoming chowder rust
Only hurts when I
Hurts when I pee
Oh well, it hurts when I
Hurts when I sing
Roll into my bed, which does consist of
Lice, bugs, and fleas, and yellow mucus
Stained dirt Vaseline, toe jam and booger
Stomach acid worms that dance in sugared sludge
To the gels and creams, it is pertaining
To a fungus mold is my injection
Hope it's only a, a yeast infection
Only hurts when I
Hurts when I pee
Oh well, it hurts when I
Hurts when I sing
Now I vomit cum and diarrhea
On the tile floor like oatmeal pizza
With a toilet bowl full of a cloudy pus
I feel my blood becoming chowder rust
Only hurts when I
Hurts when I pee
Oh well, it hurts when I
Hurts when I sing
Roll into my bed, which does consist of
Lice, bugs, and fleas, and yellow mucus
Stained dirt Vaseline, toe jam and booger
Stomach acid worms that dance in sugared sludge

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

All the itchy flakes, it is a flaming All the gels and cremes it is pertaining To a fungus mold cured by injection Hope it's only ah, a yeast infection
Oh well, it burns when I - it hurts when I pee Oh well, it hurts when I - it hurts when I see
Now I vomit cum and diarrhoea On the tile floor like oatmeal pizza Fill my toilet bowl full of a cloudy Puss, I feel the blood becoming chowder rust
Oh well, it burns when I - it hurts when I pee Oh well, it hurts when I - it hurts when I see
Roll into my bed which does consist of Lice, bugs and fleas and yellow mucus Stained dirt, vaseline, toe jam and booger Stomach acid worms that dance in sugared sludge
