I’ve Suffered a Head Injury Lyrics

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)

Vanilla Iceman
Cometh, goeth
Sampling, dealing
Music stolen

To pre-pubescent girls appealing
Re-mix record contract sealing
Borrowed lyrics sung with feeling
Slumping record sales are healing

Concert hall promoters kneeling
Keeping grateful deadheads relling
Quite suppressed yet quite revealing
Influence is far from stealing

I've suffered a head (I've suffered a head injury)
I've suffered a head (I've suffered a head injury)

Techno-pop kids
Stardom's rockets
Money in their
Label's pocket
Unrelentless, thoughtless selling
Busting charts, atop they're dwelling
Lacking substance story telling
Lost the message in this yelling

Robbing fortunes from the willing
Endless posing, mindless chilling
Plastic icing airtime filling
Instigating art-rock killing

I've suffered a head (I've suffered a head injury)
I've suffered a head (I've suffered a head injury)

Word to your mother, mother
Play that funky music white boy
Word to your mother, mother
Play that funky music white boy
Word to your mother, mother
Play that funky music white boy

I've suffered a head (I've suffered a head injury)
I've suffered a head (I've suffered a head injury)
I've suffered a head (I've suffered a head injury)
I've suffered a head (I've suffered a head injury)

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

How to Format Lyrics:

  • 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 [?]
