Without My Tonsils is a song about someone who overexaggerates the usefulness of tonsils after getting told they need to lose them. They then dip into existentialism near the end of the song.
Without my hands
Without my nose
Without my fangs
Without my clothes
Without my nervous system
Without my brain
Without my tonsils
I'm not the same
Without my brand of humor
Um…
Without my so-so fashion sense
Without my love for all things funky
Without my lack of pretense
Without my repetitive behavior
Without my repetitive behavior
Without my occasional deviation
Without my repetitive behavior
Without my hands
Without my nose
Without my fangs
Without my clothes
Without my nervous system
Without my brain
Without my tonsils
I'm not the same as I was just a moment ago
Better to stick to the things you know
Doesn't it suck when it all changes?
Doesn't it feel like you've been vanquished?
First you have hands, and then you don't
First you have a nose, and then you don't
First you have fangs, and then you don't
First you have clothes, and then you don't
And then you don't
And then you wake up
You shower and you brush your teeth
You have a bowl of Special K, ‘cause it's a special day
But it's just the same as any other day
The only difference is you have no soul
And no fangs, and no brain, and no chains, and apparently no say
Dear God, why is it raining outside?
Dear God, why is everything glowing oddly?
Dear God, I think I'm in a loophole
Dear God, what do you suggest I do?
I want to do the opposite of what I did before I knew I wanted to
I want to do the opposite of what I did before I knew I wanted to
I want to do the opposite of what I did before I knew I wanted to
I want to do the opposite of what I did before I knew I wanted to
I want to be myself, as long as being myself is popular among my peers
I want to be myself, as long as being myself is popular among my peers
I want to do the opposite of what I did before I knew I wanted to
I want to do the opposite of what I did before I knew I wanted to
B… A… whatever it is, whatever it is, whatever it is, whatever it is
Whatever it is, whatever it is, whatever it is, whatever it is
(Whatever it is.)
Please excuse the following half-assed segue
Without my hands
Without my nose
Without my fangs
Without my clothes
Without my nervous system
Without my brain
Without my tonsils
I'm not the same
Disappointing ending
Disappointing ending
Disappointing ending
Disappointing ending
Disappointing ending
