[Verse 1]
Our life
Like a dream
Step on stage, and then the girlies scream
This world
Unreal
Just like a simulated fantasy

Parties crazy
Memory is hazy
Flash before me every once in a while
Do I remember?
A dark night in November
White lab coat and a bright white light…

[Chorus]
Brain in a vat
I'm just a brain in a vat
Brain in a vat, brain in a vat, oh yeah
I'm just a brain a vat

[Verse 2]
Mad doctor
Brain robber
Stole our brains, & tied up in his lab
His scheme
Big machine
Programmed to stimulate our brains in a vat
Electric shocks
Sparks fire
Our neurons linked up to a billion live wires
They trigger
Sensations
It’s all a hallucination!
[Chorus]
Brain in a vat
I'm just a brain in a vat
Brain in a vat, brain in a vat, oh yeah
I'm just a brain a vat

[Verse 3]
My brain
Detained
Chained up in a jar, kept alive
My mind
Confined
Isolated from the world outside
But I was walking and I was talking
And we were rockin', in the city tonight
While we were dreamin', a little Evil Demon
Kept us prisoner in his world of lies!

[Bridge]
In our vats we were kings of the world
Everything. Money and girls
In our vats we could get what we want
Big hair, endless croissants
Who cares, if it’s all a sham
I just want to live in my fantasy land!
[Guitar solo]

[Chorus]
Brain in a vat
I'm just a brain in a vat
Brain in a vat, brain in a vat, oh yeah
I'm just a brain a vat
