Put the Waterbug in the Policeman’s Ear

My brother's at the store
A genius when he's bored
He contemplates his consciousness

He feels his hands they sweat
He can't connect it yet
He pools all his resources

And he calls out the insects he commands
And the waterbugs attack the policeman

My brother's at the morgue
He gets up off the floor
He contemplates his escape

But a guard waits at the door
He feels his powers soar
He pools all his resources

And he calls out the insects he commands
And the waterbugs attack the policeman

He tries to make it home
He stops to use the phone
He can't remember where the house is

But a cop waits at his car
And he needs his meds once more
He pools all his resources
