Brainwashed - Stephen Malkmus

Brainwash me, brainwash me

Please, take these old thoughts away

Scatter and smother and cover them

Down where they lay

I could care less where they land

I’m on the open idea plan

Brainwash me, brainwash me

Please, I am ready to bail

Into a new modality

If it’s available

Watching the story unfold

Doing my head in like solid gold

When I got busted in Maine

Bad propane

I knew the game was a racket

And yet I remain

I did it all for the scratch

Success is addictive, you know about that
