Crying Spark plug thread busted

Hey everybody, seems like the last time I was plug-chopping the damn thing I over-tightened the spark plug and today, when I was changing it again, it felt like the thread is wrong, also there were some aluminum stripes left inside the threads of the old spark plug... I put the new one and this time it took too many turns to tighten it good.. Anyway, seems tight now, but I think one or two more spark plug changes and it'll go to hell. So what options do I have? A new cylinder head only or I can re-thread it somehow without removing the top end? Thanks.
