Gov’t Mule - Little Toy Brain lyrics
[Gov’t Mule - Little Toy Brain lyrics]
So you thought you could handle it
- yeah didn't they all
So look at the shape that you're in
But fools never compromise - they
Go out in flames
So out with the old, in with the new
What in the world has happened to you
What goes on in that little toy brain
Who'll sweep out the wreckage
Who'll sing the refrain
And after the smoke clears -
Is there anything left
Did you wash it all away
So you cried like a baby asking for more
- still you don't know where you've been
Ain't it high time you woke up
Took a good look around
You're killing yourself - damning
Your soul - all
In the name of sweet rock and roll
What goes on in that little toy brain
Who'll sweep out the wreckage
Who'll sing the refrain
And after the smoke clears -
Is there anything left
Did you wash it all away
"Hold me, I'm lonely, " you say to yourself
The only one who will listen now
So what does it mean if you finally
Explain you were never good at apologies
I've got some pride left
But, it's plain to see
It's been earmarked for emergency
So what ever happened to your blind
Faith - did it crumble away like me, like me
What goes on in that little toy brain
Who'll sweep out the wreckage
Who'll sing the refrain
And after the smoke clears -
Is there anything left
Did you wash it all away
Did you wash it all away
Did you wash it all away
Tell me what goes on in that little toy brain
- yeah didn't they all
So look at the shape that you're in
But fools never compromise - they
Go out in flames
So out with the old, in with the new
What in the world has happened to you
What goes on in that little toy brain
Who'll sweep out the wreckage
Who'll sing the refrain
And after the smoke clears -
Is there anything left
Did you wash it all away
So you cried like a baby asking for more
- still you don't know where you've been
Ain't it high time you woke up
Took a good look around
You're killing yourself - damning
Your soul - all
In the name of sweet rock and roll
What goes on in that little toy brain
Who'll sweep out the wreckage
Who'll sing the refrain
And after the smoke clears -
Is there anything left
Did you wash it all away
"Hold me, I'm lonely, " you say to yourself
The only one who will listen now
So what does it mean if you finally
Explain you were never good at apologies
I've got some pride left
But, it's plain to see
It's been earmarked for emergency
So what ever happened to your blind
Faith - did it crumble away like me, like me
What goes on in that little toy brain
Who'll sweep out the wreckage
Who'll sing the refrain
And after the smoke clears -
Is there anything left
Did you wash it all away
Did you wash it all away
Did you wash it all away
Tell me what goes on in that little toy brain
