Lyrics
Think of these thoughts as limitless light Exposing closing circuitry of fright Think of each moment holding this breath As death minute in decimal Resident minor how do you plead We'll need your testimony on the stand [service of the fee fi fo fum] Solemnly swear to tell the whole truth So help you son now raise your right hand Father your honor may I explain My brain has claimed its glory over me I've a good heart albeit insane Condemn him to the infirmary All mine towers crumble down the flowers gasping under rubble Shrieking in the hall of lull thy genius sates a thirst for trouble Scattering sparks of thought energy Deliver me and carry me away Here in my kingdom I am your lord I order you to cower and præy Nuns commence incanting [axon – dendrite][help me!] as the lightning strikes mine temples thus Electrifying mine chambers wholly scorching out thine sovereignty So spiraling down thy majesty I beg of thee have mercy on me I was just a boy you see I plead of thee have sympathy for me See how the serfs work the ground [see how they fall] And they give it all they've got And they give it all they've got [Fall] And you give it all you've got 'til you're down [Fall] HA-HA-HA-HA See how the brain plays around And you fall inside a hole you couldn't see And you fall inside a hole inside a Someone help me Understand what's going on inside my mind Doctor I can't tell if I'm not me When it grows bright the particles start to Marvel having made it through the night Never they ponder whether electric Calming if you look at it right
Inside The Mind Of Simon Lyrics
Resident Simon, how do you plead We'll need your testimony on the stand Solemnly swear to summon your story Tell the truth and raise your right hand Resident Marvin let me explain My brain has claimed its glory over me I've a good heart, I may be insane Please mend my mind and let me go free All my towers crumble down The flowers gasping under rubble Shouting in the hall of lull My demons quench my thirst for trouble Scattering sparks of thought energy Deliver me and carry me away Here in my kingdom, I am your lord I order you to cower and pray All my monks were chanting [axon – dendrite] as The lightning struck my temples And electric shocks destructed places Said they read it on my face And swirling down your majesty I beg of thee have mercy on me I was just a boy you see I beg of thee have sympathy for me See how the serfs work the ground And they give it all they've got And they give it all they've got And they give it all they've got till they're down Ha-ha-ha-ha See how the brain plays around And you fall inside a hole You couldn't see And you fall inside a hole inside a Someone help me Understand what's going on inside my mind Doctor I can't tell if I'm not me When it grows light the particles Start to marvel how they made it through the night Never they ponder whether electric Calming if you look at it right

See how the serfs work the ground [see how they fall] And they give it all they've got And you give it all you've got [fall] And we give it all we've got till we're down [fall] See how the brain plays around And you fall inside a hole You couldn't see And you fall inside a hole inside a Someone help me Understand what's going on inside my mind Doctor I can't tell if I'm not me See how I laugh at you You'll never understand No, you'll never understand No, you'll never ever ever understand See how I run from you, I'll never ever ever understand Oh I'll never ever ever understand
