Yes, here he's got it I'm sure
'Cause he lost his life in an accident
Found his heart in the man next door
What exactly is gonna happen
When they do transplant the brain
Will my borrowed brain still compute the same
Or will my daughter suffer so much more
Here comes the girl, she's got her head screwed on
But it ain't screwed on right
Her ambition is to be a prostitute
But the breaks just weren't right
What exactly is gonna happen, tell me
When her father finds out
That his virgin daughter has bordello dreams
And that he's the one she wants to try out
Yeah
There's ma, she's living dangerously
It's a cinch she'll try it anything twice
She thinks she can run right to the whirlpool's edge
And stop herself just in time
What exactly is gonna happen
When she finally fizzles out
The lovers will just be sucked into
To see what the colours of death are all about
Here's the son, has his legs a-screwed on
Yeah, they're screwed on pretty tight
But his brain is loose and it ain't no use
He's already lost the fight
What exactly is gonna happen
When he's finally realized
That he can't play his guitar like E.G. Jim
Or write St. Augustine if he tried
That's what happens
When a family finds out
That they've been in orbit now for a thousand years
And need a thousand more to climb out
Here's father, his heart screwed on Yes, here he's got it I'm sure 'Cause he lost his life in an accident Found his heart in the man next door What exactly is gonna happen When they do transplant the brain Will my borrowed brain still compute the same Or will my daughter suffer so much more Here comes the girl, she's got her head screwed on But it ain't screwed on right Her ambition is to be a prostitute But the breaks just weren't right What exactly is gonna happen, tell me When her father finds out That his virgin daughter has bordello dreams And that he's the one she wants to try out Yeah There's ma, she's living dangerously It's a cinch she'll try it anything twice She thinks she can run right to the whirlpool's edge And stop herself just in time What exactly is gonna happen When she finally fizzles out The lovers will just be sucked into To see what the colours of death are all about Here's the son, has his legs a-screwed on Yeah, they're screwed on pretty tight But his brain is loose and it ain't no use He's already lost the fight What exactly is gonna happen When he's finally realized That he can't play his guitar like E.G. Jim Or write St. Augustine if he tried That's what happens When a family finds out That they've been in orbit now for a thousand years And need a thousand more to climb out Explain Request ×
