You've rolled yourself into a big fat cigar
Every day since fifteen so your teeth are fuzzy yellow
You've grown your hair smoke-sticky and glib-long
You think you're play-it-cool, but you're a bastard of a fellow
You drive your leech-filled eyes like oil drills
To inky black depths of every book ever
You suck up all my words like they're yours, too
You're a bastard of a fellow, but you think that you're so clever
So this is the end of the line for your brain
This is the end of the line for your brain
This is the end of the line for your brain
Cuz I'm gonna eat it like a snake eats an egg
You act like you ain't got no time to address cameras
You've mastered the art of posing from the side
You think your profile makes you look like a brooding genius
But it's really cuz straight-on you've got a fat face & squint-eyes
You thought your love the biggest whale in the ocean
Because you bought twelve roses and black Chantilly lace
But when your precious brown-eyed girl went off to India
You burned all of her lingerie, then prosed your angst for praise
So this is the end of the line for your brain
This is the end of the line for your brain
This is the end of the line for your brain
Cuz I'm gonna eat it like a snake eats an egg
So pal around with heavy hitters
in three-piece suits and four-part names
Drink your bourbon, get chum-chum,
get so fucked up won't miss your brains
Bow for the bow ties, then go home,
settle into flannel with a fart
Then leave to me, Million Dollar Baby,
cuz I'm fuckin' Picasso in the brain-eating art
