Marianne Faithfull
Brain Drain
[Verse 1]
Well I know that you're tired of living this way
We've been trying to get high without having to pay
The walls are all empty, it's not a permanent state
Just let me tell you that it's not too late

[Chorus]
You're a brain drain
You go on and on like a blood stain
You're a drain brain
You go on and on like a blood stain

[Verse 2]
Well, you know I ain't selfish, there's always a way
If a thing ain't worth having, you're having to pay

[Chorus]
You're a brain drain
You go on and on like a blood stain
You're a train brain
You go on and on like a blood stain

[Bridge]
Got so much to offer, but I can't pay the rent
I can't buy you roses 'cause the money's all spent
[Verse 3]
Well, you sat in my car, you drank my champagne
You stole all my silk but you gave me no change

[Chorus]
You're a brain drain
You go on and on like a blood stain
You're a train brain
You go on and on like a blood stain

[Bridge]
Got so much to offer, but I can't pay the rent
I can't buy you roses 'cause the money's all spent

[Verse 3]
Well, you sat in my car, you drank my champagne
You stole all my silk, you left me no change

[Chorus]
You're a brain drain
You go on and on like a blood stain
You're a train drain
You go on and on like a blood stain
