Wake up

Put on my makeup

And pick the rake up

And rake my hair

And I think, maybe, but I don't know

But I'm starting to feel like I got a

Brain Problem Situation on my hands

I think, maybe, but I don't know

But I'm starting to feel like I got a

Brain Problem Situation on my hands

I think, maybe, but I don't know

But I'm starting to feel like I got a

Brain Problem Situation on my hands

On my hands, I'm looking down, and I can't see what I've got

On my hands there's a Brain Problem Situation

Twenty nine inches of snow on the top of the Situation on the Brain

And the scraper I buried somewhere in the springtime will emerge

And I think, maybe, but I don't know

But I'm starting to feel like I got a

Brain Problem Situation on my hands

I think, maybe, but I don't know

But I'm starting to feel like I got a

Brain Problem Situation in the bag

In the bag, in the paper bag, is the source of the call

It was traced to the paper bag

Yes the call has been traced to the bag

Stand up

And put our hand up

And with our eyes closed

We touch our nose

And the cop tells us, but we don't know

But we're starting to feel like we got a

Brain Problem Situation on our hands

We think, officer, but we don't know

But we're starting to feel like we got a

Brain Problem Situation on our hands

On our hands

Ooo ooo

On our hands

In the drunk tank

We're in the drunk tank

We're in the drunk tank

All by ourselves

And I think, maybe, but I don't know

But I'm starting to feel like I got a

Brain Problem Situation on my hands

And I think, maybe, but I don't know

But I'm starting to feel like I got a

Brain Problem Situation on my hands

On my hands
