[Verse 1]
I am the teenage brainsurgeon
The butcher of hellhouse
Descend into the maelstrom

Feel the wrath of the scorpion
Dead bodies crawlin' out of the dirt
[Chorus]
A Teenage Brainsurgeon
A Teenage Brainsurgeon
A Teenage Brainsurgeon
A Teenage Brainsurgeon
[Bridge 1]
A mutant strain of DNA
Submit to my IQ
I am a psycho teenage
Angry young man age
Fly in the ointment youth
[Verse 2]

I'll purge your world and make you kneel
Nazi robots in straight jackets
You'll sleep no more
My killer klowns want vengeance
They're laughing behind the green door
[Chorus]
A Teenage Brainsurgeon
A Teenage Brainsurgeon
A Teenage Brainsurgeon
A Teenage Brainsurgeon
[Bridge 2]
I'm gulpin' blood and playin' cards
Before my lunatic kill quest
I know the value of people who are sheep
Plunge an ice pick in their chest!
I thirst for psychotic reactions and shock therapy girls
I am the Teenage Brainsurgeon
The ruler of the dark world
