Jonathan Coulton - Re: Your Brains Lyrics
Heya Tom, it's Bob from the office down the hallGood to see you buddy, how've you been?Thing have been OK for me, except that I'm a zombie nowI really wish you'd let us inI think I speak for all of us when I say I understandWhy you folks might hesitate to submit to our demandBut here's an FYI: you're all gonna die screaming!All we want to do is eat your brainsWe're not unreasonable; I mean, no one's gonna eat your eyesAll we want to do is eat your brainsWe're at an impasse here--maybe we should compromise:If you open up the doors,We'll all come inside and eat your brains!I don't want to nitpick, Tom, but is this really your plan?To spend your whole life locked inside a mall?Maybe that's OK for now, but someday you'll be out of food and gunsAnd then you'll have to make the callI'm not surprised to see you haven't thought it through enoughYou never had the head for all that bigger-picture stuffBut Tom, that's what I do, and I plan on eating you slowly!All we want to do is eat your brainsWe're not unreasonable; I mean, no one's gonna eat your eyesAll we want to do is eat your brainsWe're at an impasse here--maybe we should compromise:If you open up the doors,We'll all come inside and eat your brains!I'd like to help you, Tom, in any way I canI sure appreciate the way you're working with meI'm not a monster, Tom, well, technically I amI guess I am...I've got another meeting, Tom--maybe we could wrap it up?I know we'll get to common ground somehowMeanwhile, I'll report back to my colleagues, who were chewing on the doorsI guess we'll table this for nowI'm glad to see you take constructive criticism wellThank you for your time, I know we're all busy as hellAnd we'll put this thing to bed, when I bash your head open!All we want to do is eat your brainsWe're not unreasonable; I mean, no one's gonna eat your eyesAll we want to do is eat your brainsWe're at an impasse here--maybe we should compromise:If you open up the doors,We'll all come inside and eat your brains!
