"Brainwascht" lyrics
"Brainwascht"
1, 2, 3
If you wanna write a letter, write a letter
If you'd rather make a phone call, pick the phone up, call me
But if you had to say it all with a pop song
Couldn't you at least have written me a good one?
She's brainwashed you, brainwashed you, brainwashed you, brainwashed you too
She's brainwashed you, brainwashed you, brainwashed you, brainwashed you too
Was it just a simple rewind and erase?
Was your mind squeaky-clean in the first place?
If you gotta write an essay, do your research
If you got to
Stick your nose in a boy-and-girl fight, hear both sides first
There's something wrong being copied on a memo
In the form of a bad country demo
She's brainwashed you, brainwashed you, brainwashed you, brainwashed you too
She's brainwashed you, brainwashed you, brainwashed you, brainwashed you too
Is there a funnel from her mind to your mouth now?
'Cause you don't edit anything; it just comes out
I gotta say (gotta say)
It's pretty gay, trading jabs with pop song
So maybe next time we should just have a dance-off
A dance-off
Isn't there something in the Bible about forgiveness and love?
And more importantly, about throwing stones and what your house is made of?
You might reflect upon your own arrangement
In '94, getting blown in your basement
(While your wife slept!)
She's brainwashed you, brainwashed you, brainwashed you, brainwashed you too
She's brainwashed you, brainwashed you, brainwashed you, brainwashed you too
She's brainwashed you (Integrity)
She's brainwashed you (Family)
She's b-b-brainwashed you (Online rhyming dictionary)

OK Go - "Do What You Want" So you were born
In an electrical storm
Took a bite out the sun
Saw your future in a machine built for two
Now your rays
Make me kind of go crazy
Shock and awe and amaze me
Just a ticker tape parade...
Harvey Danger - "Sad Sweetheart Of The Rodeo" Not another existential cowboy,
And no more "California champagne".
Not another saddle tramp --
Sick, sore, lonely, and out of place,
Cryin' in his coffee ice cream (come on).
Edith cannot fix...
Weezer - "Hash Pipe" I can't help my feelings, I'll go out of my mind
These players come to get me cause they'd like my behind
I can't love my business if I can't get a trick
Down on Santa Monica where tricks are for...
Cake - "Satan Is My Motor" I've got wheels
Of polished steel
I've got tires that grab
The road
I've got seats that selflessly
Hold my friends
And a trunk that can carry
The heaviest of loads
I've got a mind that can steer...
They Might Be Giants - "Can't Keep Johnny Down" Outnumbered a million to one
All of the dicks in this dick town
Can't keep Johnny down
Men piled up in a towering mound
None of them once has found a way
To keep Johnny down
Spending days by myself...
