Lyrics There’s a Brain in My Head - White Denim

There’s a Brain in My Head

Before I was even a child
You could guess that I was gonna turn out wild
By taking' a look at my mom and papa
No, no, nobody could teach me a thing
You see, my ears were shing-a-ling-ling
Uh, if you looked at me wrong
Man, I was gonna try to stop ya
See, there’s a brain in my head
But there’s a stone where my heart should be
If you’re looking' for answers
Man, don’t look at me
Oh, how could you love me when
(love me when)
Indifference is my only friend
(my only)
And when I’m in her arms
I feel no past or future
I wanna be just like you
(just like you)
But I’m blinded by the truth
(blinded)
And my love is
This proud illusion
See, there’s a brain in my head
But there’s a stone where my heart should be
Oh, when you’re looking' for answers
Man, don’t look at me
See, there’s a brain in my head
There’s a stone where my heart should be
Oh, when you’re lookin' for answers
Man, don’t look at me
Allow me to defile
A couple of things that you find worthwhile
Oh, if you’re stickin' around
Then don’t leave until I blessed you
So many reasons to be
A baby toy tied to your string
Ah, I’m playin' it cool
But, man, I’m gonna let it past you
See, there’s a brain in my head
But there’s a stone where my heart should be
Oh, when you’re looking' for answers
Man, don’t look at me
There’s a brain in my head
But there’s a stone where my heart should be
Oh, when you’re lookin' for answers
Man, don’t look at me
