Lonely Lab of Broken Hearts
Arrogant Worms · C'est Cheese [1995]
You told me by college we'd be wed
You were my favorite lab partner
'Till you ran off with that brilliant young pre-med
My pain would show up on a CAT scan
My optic nerves are only seeing blue
My blood hates to flow, because it has to go
Through the four chambered heart that cries for you
Chorus:
I'm in the lonely lab of broken hearts
I dissect the way you say goodbye until it falls apart
I'm in the lonely lab of feeling blue
And my pheremones can find no trace of you
You were as sweet as crystalline carbohydrates
The Rosin-coated optical recepters are filled with tears
I wanted to elope, so we could make some isotopes
With a half life, of a million thousand years
If I suspended my tracheal dialations 'till you returned here
My muscles would need ATP anaerobic respiration
Adazine, cytizine, guanine, mythyamine might make up my DNA
But my love gene must be missing from it's station
Chorus 3X
"U stands for Uranium. There are several types of Isitopes of Uranium, three of which are radioactive"
