Billions of brain cells
Billions of brain cells ago
They’re dead and gone – alas, alack
The victims of a sneak attack
Oh, how I wish I had them back
The things I used to know
Billions of brain cells ago
There’s so much I’ve forgotten . . . .
Lalalalalalala
My lights are dim, my lobes are lame
I know I’ll never think the same
But at least they didn’t die in vain
The things I used to know
Billions of brain cells ago
Hic, haec, hoc
This brain is such a joke
Fee fi fo fum
I wasn’t always this dumb
Billions of brain cells
Billions of brain cells ago
It truly is a scary sight
To see your brain cells burning bright
But ah, they give such lovely light . . . .
The things I used to know
Billions of brain cells ago
Trillions and zillions and quadriquintillions
Times billions of brain cells ago.
Loved the Hic, Haec, Hoc reference. It reminded me of Fr. Allison’s Lingua Latina classes early in the morn of 1968-69.
