lyrics

I woke up at 3 am
I had to take a pee
I tried to lie down
and go back to sleep
But it was not to be
My brain had lots of stuff to say
A big soliliquy
It kept me up til half past six
And this is what it said to me

Blah blah blah said my
brainy brainy brain
Blah blah blah blah blee
Blah blah blah blah
blabber blabber bloo
Said my brainy brainy brain to me

I got up and combed my hair
I stared at the kitchen wall
I went to school and sat in my chair
But I couldn’t think at all
My brain had used up all its words
To talk to me all night
And then the teacher called on me
To stand up and recite

Duh duh duh
Said my brainy brainy brain
Duh duh duh dee dway
Duh duh Duh duh dunny dunny bleh
Said my brainy brainy brain all day

If brains are supposed
To be so smart
Then why is mine so dumb?
It sleeps all day and it blabs all night
How come how come how come?

I came home and did my chores
I went to watch tv
But now my brain was all worn out
And this is what it said to me

ZZZZZZZZ
Said my brainy brainy brain
ZZZZ ZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZ
ZZZZZZZZZZ ZZZZ ZZZZ
ZZZ
g’night
