When I work on my inventions
I use rubber bands and glue
When I work on my inventions
I cut some things in two
Take a peek
but keep it secret
Almost done with my invention
but I need a volunteer
When I work on my inventions
I have to plug my ears
But who said science
is quiet?
Put your hand inside the jar
Goddammit I'm in charge
Keep those wires in your mouth
don't spit 'em out
I'm inventing what will be
the thing that tells me
what invented me
I'm not nice to my inventions
when they are not nice to me
You don't know about invention
so shut up
I guess some of my inventions
don't want sleep and don't want food
I love all of my inventions
Why don't they love me?
I love all of my inventions
but they don't love me
Do they, kittie?
Do they, kittie?
Put your hand inside the jar
Goddammit, I'm in charge
Keep those wires in your mouth
Don't spit 'em out
I'm inventing what will be
the thing that tells me
what invented me
What invented me?
someone tell me
what invented me
I must discover
what invented me?
So put my hand inside the jar
Flip the switch and boost the charge
Keep those wires in my mouth
Don't let 'em out
This discovery will be
the one that tells me
what invented me
