Telex Brainwash
I was a brain
An egghead
Overly-sane
I was half-dead
Then I saw you in Paris
And I said, "My God, I've just been brainwashed..."
When I was smart
And clever
Read about Sartre
But you're better
When I hold you close to me
I lose all my memories, I'm happy
Brainwashed, brainwashed, love did this to me
Now I'm a person
I've started cursin'
Then you met that
Professor
He was a real
Tough tester
You said goodbye
You'd call me
He was a real
Svengali
I lost you but you'll come back
I'll enrol in his course, "How to Brainwash"
Brainwashed, brainwashed, love did this to me
Now I'm a person
I've started cursin'
