Lyrics

Gerbil

[Verse 1]

He gets out of bed

He goes to the room

He turns on the set

He is as smart as a broom

[Chorus 1]

Hey you, brainless

How'd you lose us?

Hey you, thoughtless

How'd you screw us?

[Verse 2]

It starts on his head

He tries not to hear

It gets worse instead

He checks out of here

[Chorus 2]

Hey you, dumbass

How'd you lose us?

Hey you, headless

Why'd you screw us?

Us
