I take my brain out of my skull each night and clean it nice and neatly   Hold it gently, be careful not to drop it   Relax it!   Give it a break from the daily nonsense   Close my eyes and think positive thoughts   When I wake up I place it back inside of the skull   Ready to begin the next day rejuvenated   Re-energised, watch my muscles expand   As I run to catch a bus because I'm late for work again   "Excuse me! I didn't mean to shoulder you   But you're fat taking up the whole pavement   Never mind! I got places to get to   And people to meet that could help me get back on my feet"   The bus finally came about an hour late   The driver looked at my pass but couldn't see the date   He said, "Pay the fare or get off so I could drive on"   That's when I knew the whole day was going to go wrong   I made it to work in one piece   The manager called me in and began waving his fist   And babbling, I didn't hear a word   'Cause my mind was on finishing this album on schedule   I'm smiling 'cause of the gap between his teeth   He's losing his temper 'cause I'm smiling   While he's nagging me, so now I'm unemployed again   I tell my girlfriend, she tells me she's leaving me       You ever get the feeling that nothing is going right?   (How long will this last?)   From the second you're awake until you sleep at night!   (How long will this last?)   Your socks and your underwear, your trainers are tight!   (How long will this last?)   Your girlfriend is heavy but you thought that she was light!   (How long will this last?)      I go for a walk to clear my head   There's a dog in the middle of the road dead   So I pick it up to take it off of the road   Only to turn and get hit by a bicycle   At high speed, I'm thrust into the middle   Where I'm hit by a car and hospitalised   I broke both of my arms and the right leg   So now I'm in wheelchair with a bandage around my head   The doctor said it was only temporary I'd be walking in eight weeks just like I did before   I got a weird bounce, will I be able to keep it?   Of course you will   Trust me!   I'm a doctor!   But anyway miraculously I still   Have this urge to complete this album   So I call a cab to take me back to my place   It arrives and instantly he has a breakdown   So I call another and get to my place at nine   Only to see the door's been kicked off it's hinges   I pay the driver then run inside like a lunatic I don't believe my luck; even the floorboards are gone   My equipment, my entire record collection   My fridge and all the chairs and even the sink   They ain't professional, they left a pen   In other words they've given me reason to strike again   I've had it now that my brain is overloaded   With the same nonsense, it's about to explode   So it's time to take my brain out of the skull   And relax it once again while I prepare for tomorrow      You ever get the feeling that nothing is going right?   (How long will this last?)   From the second you're awake until you sleep at night!   (How long will this last?)   Your socks and your underwear, your trainers are tight!   (How long will this last?)   Your girlfriend is heavy but you thought that she was light!   (How long will this last?)
