Intro: Em Am Em B7 (2x)
 
Em
Well hello there little boy.
Am
Now don't be shy.
Em B7
Step right up, I'm a reasonable guy.
Em Am
Don't be frightened by the look in my eye.
Em B7
I'm just your average evil meteor from outta the sky.
Em
Well, I'm just shy and scared in this place
Am
I'm just a fish outta water from outer space
Em
You can see that the trip has left me tired and drained
B7
So why don't you be a pal...
 
And bring me some BRAINS!
 
Em
Go down to your neighbor's place
Am
See the dull expression on his face
Em
you'd be doing him a favor if you brought him to me
B7
He aint using his brain he's just watching TV!
Em
Go down to Mr. McGee's
Am
He hasn't had a thought since '43.
Em
His brain is the portrait of atrophy.
B7
He ain't using it, why not give it to me?
 
Em Am
BRAINS, BRAINS, I won't lie,
Em B7
I'll eat their brains 'til they're zombified.
Em Am
Sure they might think it's deranged
Em
But they won't give it a thought
B7
After I've eaten they're brain.
Em Am
BRAINS, BRAINS, It's okay.
Em B7
It's not a matter if it isn't gray,
Em Am
And if at first they thinks it's strange,
Em
they won't think twice
B7
If they don't have a brain!
