about

'My Brain Exploded' is Bernie Griffen and The Thin Men’s first single release from Bernie’s third album, Doors Wide Open. It’s a self-portrait, he says: “I’ve given up the H, now just struggling with the ADD, it drives me crazy!"

lyrics

I've been hanging around almost losing my head
getting lost and getting found again
you've been asking questions of my behaviour
I feel like a body full of swollen glands.

You laugh and cry and look at me
love and doubt and fury in your eyes
why can't you be, a steady man
and all I can do is sigh.

My brain exploded I can't stop it anymore
my brain exploded and I'm bouncing off the walls
and I just can't focus I argue with myself
hopefully in time it'll fade away.

They say it's in the family this kind of thing
concentration seems so hard to find
although I must say I see it everywhere
I'm far from perfect release me from your eyes.

My brain exploded I can't stop it anymore
my brain exploded and I'm bouncing off the walls
and I just can't focus I argue with myself
hopefully in time it'll fade away.
