Lyrics

[00:03.12]
[00:53.61] My brother's at the store
[00:55.92]
[00:57.19] A genius when he's bored
[01:00.18]
[01:01.10] He contemplates his consciousness
[01:04.85]
[01:08.90] He feels his hands they sweat
[01:11.77]
[01:12.74] He can't connect it yet
[01:15.55]
[01:16.37] He pools all his resources
[01:19.79]
[01:21.81] And he calls out the insects he commands
[01:29.29] And the water bugs attack the policeman
[01:35.05]
[02:41.62] My brother's at the morgue
[02:44.00]
[02:45.28] He gets up off the floor
[02:48.05]
[02:49.19] He contemplates his escape
[02:54.07]
[02:56.77] But a guard waits at the door
[02:59.17]
[03:00.44] And he feels his powers soar
[03:03.75]
[03:04.47] And he pools all his resources
[03:07.83]
[03:09.74] And he calls out the insects he commands
[03:17.42] And the water bugs attack the policeman
[03:23.06]
[04:53.11] He tries to make it home
[04:55.38]
[04:56.94] He stops to use the phone
[04:59.88]
[05:00.69] But he can't remember where the house is
[05:06.61]
[05:08.50] But a cop waits at his car
[05:10.97]
[05:12.15] So he needs his friends once more
[05:15.41]
[05:16.08] And he pools all his resources
[05:19.55]
[05:21.63] And he calls out the insects he commands
[05:28.74]
[05:29.25] And the water bugs attack the policeman
[05:34.76]
[05:36.62] Yeah the water bugs attack the policeman
