Paid in Brains

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Yeah You're sitting calm and unalarmed But it won't be long It'll have you wrapped around your finger with its charm Then you won't speak and you won't breath And so you see how this is all you'll ever be? It takes your soul, it makes it old It sands it down, bleaches it out until it's sold All for a pill A cheaper thrill You'll swallow more because you'll never get your fill [Verse 2] Well help yourself, your high won't wait It's a special strain developed by the state It comes on quick, it don't let up So tell your friends about it, help 'em all get fucked So have a seat, and take a breath And chalk an X up on the day the high'll end You're talking hours? I'm talking days We're talking take a break from work cause where you're going you tell time a million ways [Chorus] Pay! The price is brains! We're all insane! Pay! The price is brains! Don't be ashamed, we're all insane! Tying up loose-end life? Been fighting all your years just to find a different way to die? So sad but I'm glad we get to talk about it just so I can fuck you [Verse 3] Now you're sitting numb, deaf, blind and dumb It worries some but in your skull you're so content to be a lump We'll bring you feed, that's all you need And make you bleed because you just can't measure up Go help yourself, high couldn't wait On yeah, that special strain developed by the state It came on quick, it won't let up Don't tell your friends about it they're already fucked [Chorus] Tying up a loose-end life? Been fighting all your years just to find a different way to die? So sad but I'm glad we get to talk about it just so I can call you bad So long When we arrived I could bet we'd be singing this old song So long When we arrived I could bet that we'd be singing this old song [Outro] Pay! The price is brains! We're all insane! Pay! The price is brains! Don't be ashamed, we're all insane! (Take all those pills, swallow 'em down, take every one) We're all insane! Pay! The price is brains! Don't be ashamed, we're all insane!
