Where Was My Brain Lyrics - Brutalist Bricks - Ted Leo & The Pharmacists

I saw a future, I saw me a way 

Equal work, I thought demands equal pay 

I heard new music on the radio 

I thought that gradual dissolution 

Would be the way to go 

Where was my brain? 

Where was my brain? 

Where was my brain? 

Where was my brain? 

Modern agriculture gave me a thrill 

Until I saw the things it brutally killed 

The modern architecture gave me a kick 

Until I lived among the brutalist bricks 

Where was my brain? 

Where was my brain? 

Where was my brain? 

Where was my brain? 

With me all the time, getting it wrong again 

All the suffering evened out in the end 

The stars and scriptures had some things to portend 

Thought I could speak my mind but avoid a fight 

I'd do it all and make sure everybody's doing alright 

And we had the best in an imperfect world 

We had the best of an imperfect world 

We had the best, the best, the best 

Where was my brain? 

Where was my brain? 

Where was my brain? 

Where was my brain? 

Where was my brain? 

Where was my brain? 

Where was my brain? 

Where was my brain? 

Where was my brain?
