(Rob) I told you more times than I care to recall
I'd get more reaction talking to a wall.
(Dave): It's no crime to be dumb
Just don't parade it for everyone
And act like you're such a goddamn know-it at
You know-nothing-at-all.

(Rob) Your friends call you "shit-for-brains"
You're full of shit, that might explain
But I think it's even less your head contains.
G F# F F# {three times}

(Rob) I go to the beach to catch a little sun.
(Dave): You see me before I get a chance to run
(Rob): I only feel contempt for you,
You and your room temperature I.Q.
(Dave): Well look at you - you're just a big black hole of fun
(Rob) You need a brainscan to convince me you're not dead.
(Dave): You need a brainscan and hope they learn to transplant a head.
(Both): Brainscan! Brainscan!
I don't know how - how you survive,
I don't know how - how you survive,
I don't know how you -
You're alive
You're alive
You're alive
You're alive
