my brain is my heart's umbrella
This song is making me laugh with delight. It's spooky how well it works as the theme song of Dangerous Waste. Get out of my head, Jeffrey Lewis!
You don't have to be a scientist to do experiments
You don't have to be a scientist to do experiments
You don't have to be a scientist to do experiments on your own heart
I had no place to put myself but I had lots of time
I had no place to put myself but I had lots of time
I had no place to put myself but I had lots of time
So I threw out some past and made way for more future
Now I'm standing on the scene between my memories and dreams
Balanced on the seam between my memories and dreams
Floating down the stream between my memories and dreams
And I see a better person waiting his turn to be me
And you don't have to be a scientist to do experiments
You don't have to be a scientist to do experiments
You don't have to be a scientist to do experiments on your own heart
Now I'm running down the runway in between gigantic numbers
I'm running down the runway in between gigantic numbers
I'm running down the runway in between gigantic numbers
With my knapsack and a zero for a halo
And my halo's got a hole in it so it don't keep me dry
My halo's got a hole in it so it don't keep me dry
My halo's got a hole in it so it don't keep me dry
But it's okay 'cause my brain is my heart's umbrella
And you don't have to be a scientist to do experiments
You don't have to be a scientist to do experiments
You don't have to be a scientist to do experiments on your own heart
I had a girl I had to leave I saw her face upon my sleeve
I had a girl I had to leave I saw her face upon my sleeve
I had a girl I had to leave I saw her face upon my sleeve
It kept talking so I put it in the laundry
And as it spun and spun it tried to ask me what I'd done
And as it spun and spun it tried to ask me what I'd done
And as it spun and spun it tried to ask me what I'd done
But I was gone on down the road out to Elaine's
'Cos you think patience is a virtue and you think silence is a virtue
And that events can change and shape us more than we can change ourselves
And a conscious attempt at growth is stupid and I should just relax and be myself
And even think it's arrogant to try
But you don't have to be a scientist to do experiments
You don't have to be a scientist to do experiments
You don't have to be a scientist to do experiments on your own heart
(But I can't actually listen to it other than in my head because my iPod is ill. The click wheel's stopped working. I dropped it about a foot and a half on to stones last week and it's been erratic since, but this time I don't think it's coming back. The warranty's packed in a box somewhere. Sigh. Anyone here successfully get one fixed?)
