Bullet Brain and Cactus Head Songtext
von Split Enz

Send a message to the brain
Two men climbing down opposite poles
The one with hair upon his face
Sprouting like the weeds on his soul
The other is a law unto himself
His brain is like a lump of steel
And they love to break each other up
Into tiny pieces
And it′s strange, how they're always together
Bullet brain and cactus head
Always beating heads together
Bullet brain and cactus head
Watch them fall into the dirt
Desperate to make a point
Who drinks the milk of doubt
Confrontation they can never avoid
Despising what they′ve both become
Always looking for someone to blame
They think they're worlds apart
But they're exactly the same


Always moving
And it′s strange, how they′re always together
Bullet brain and cactus head
Always beating heads together
Bullet brain and cactus head
Which one of you's the liar
Bullet brain and cactus head
The night of believers, obsessive achievers
Yippies and yahoos, felons and fiends
Preachers and leeches, offenders, defenders
All on their way down to the depth of extremes
Pipsqueaking passion to head on collision
Too set in your ways to give way or concede
Oh my, oh my, oh my
What will become of the macho pretender
And his enemy?
And it′s strange, how they're always together
Bullet brain and cactus head
Always beating heads together
Bullet brain and cactus head
Which one of you′s the liar
Bullet brain and cactus head
Oh yeah, you'll rise up from the mire
Pull your face to the right
Alright, alright
Bullet
