Lyrics:

Been thinkin' 'bout the conversations, our situation

My frustration leading to your suffocation

Feel uptight and my thoughts deranged and insane

Like The Man With Two Brains

So I forgot the neurotic, got into the psychotic

All those words haven't heard, you're kind of erotic

Got no guilt, got no mind, got no reason, got no time

I'm high on the sly

It will be okay (I don't know about that)

It's the American way (Yeah maybe that's where it's at)

You were raised that way (The Europeans say)

The Man With Two Brains

Well then The Man With Two Brains says, it's a science

I've got one for my actions, one's for my conscience

Yeah, one's for the sex, the other's for the consequence

Then The Girl With One Brain says, you make no sense

You make no sense

Then the anti-cruise takes form in the frame of a young woman

From a passionate scene to a sterile queen

I put a bottle of Ed's Red in my head, a little dead

And surprised when you said

It will be okay (I don't know about that)

It's the American way (Yeah maybe that's where it's at)

You were raised that way (The Europeans say)

The Man With Two Brains

Well then The Man With Two Brains say, it's a science

I've got one for my actions, one for my conscience

Yeah, one's for the sex and the other's for the consequence

Then The Girl With One Brain says, you make no sense

You make no sense

It's cool

It's cool

It's cool

It's cool

Well then The Girl With One Brain says, it's not a science

You can't have one for your actions and one for the consequence

It's all about sex, so what's the difference

Then The Man With Two Brains says, you make no sense
