Written by Joan Osborne, Jack Petruzelli, Erik Della Penna, & Mike Mangini



I am a genius

I am a diamond

My pretty tongue gives you a freezer burn

I think above you in three dimensions

Come in here, you can never return



(chorus)

Like a hurricane

in the face of the wind and the rain

like a hurricane



When you open you open a vein

I see your headlights across my ceiling

you are a puppet of a wish I made

They never touch me, they say I'm crazy

I was born from my mother's brain, my mother's brain



(chorus)

Like a hurricane

in the face of the wind and the rain

like a hurricane



When you open you open a vein

You plant a seed in my mind

I walk around and I speak your message

For myself I don't know what to say

I walk around and I speak your message



(chorus)

Like a hurricane

in the face of the wind and the rain

like a hurricane

When you open you open a vein

Give me more give me more Novocain
