I used to be an A student

I never used to complain

I used to be a truant

But I'm still the same

Bad bad brain

Bad bad brain

I used to go to parties

I used to drink champagne

Now I'm beginning to feel the strain

Bad bad brain

I used to be in show biz

I used to have fortune and fame

I used to have pleasure and pain

I used to have a name

Bad bad brain...

Now I'm on the Bowery

I can't remember my name

Bad bad brain

Bad bad brain

Bad bad brain, bad bad brain

Bad bad brain, bad bad brain

Bad bad brain, bad bad brain

Bad bad brain...
