Lyrics
BRAIN DEAD
You say there?s no improper relations between you and anyone else.
You say the world will get much better, by lookin? out for ourselves.
You say my vote it counts as much as the man who pays your ad.
And the globalized economy can be monitored by GATT
But if you think that anyone believes what you just said?
You must be braindead.
They say I have freedom of my speech, but who can hear my words.
You say that all of us are equal, and then you send down dirt.
You say that I lost my job, because you?re tightening your belt.
And at every single level, the pain is being felt.
But if you think that anyone believes what you just said?
You must be braindead.
You say you can?t afford the changes to stop the acid rain.
And that over fishing salmon will correct itself again.
You say a system build on greed can cure the social ills.
And the pain of many souls will stop by buying pills
But if you think that anyone believes what you just said?
You must be braindead.
You say the playing field is level, there?s no need to help things out.
You say it?s equal opportunity no one tries to use their clout.
You claim that mothers milk the system and their kids will follow suit.
And that all kids would have more hope if they learned a trade in school.
But if you think that anyone believes what you just said?
You must be braindead.
Bridge
Ooh Einstein,
Ooh Einstein,
Ooh Einstein,
Ooh Einstein,
Ooh Einstein,
Ooh Einstein,
Hey Einstein? I?m talkin? to you.
You say my skin will be just perfect if I only use your cream.
And that if I use your credit, I can start to live my dream.
You say that if I wear your shoes, I will play just like a star.
And my day will start much better just by opening your jar.
But if you think that anyone believes what you just said?
You must be braindead.
You say that violence on TV brings profits without pain.
And that Cleaver Sunday dinners will fix the world again.
You say that jailing desperate souls will cure what they?ve been dealt.
And laying off the masses will bring this country health.
But if you think that anyone believes what you just said?
You must be braindead.
