Crash Course in Brain Surgery Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Look inside, and you will see
That words are cutting deep inside my brain
Thunder burning, quickly turning
Knife of words is driving me insane
Insane
Yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]
Raven black is on my track
He's shown me how to neutralize the knife
Show to me in surgery
The art of finding words to conquer life
Conquer life
Yeah, yeah

[Bridge]
Oh, baby, like that rock and roll
Oh, baby, get out of my soul

[Verse 3]
Now the wicked lance I fear
Driven from my heavy mounted brain
Crash course in brain surgery
Stop the bloody knife of love again
Yeah, yeah, yeah

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

The “brain surgery” here is metaphorical – the song is meant to show how words can carry just as much of a blow as actions. This is one of Budgie’s most popular songs, and it was covered by Metallica on their Garage Days Re-Revisited EP.
