Lyrics by A. Vörös
Why don't we jump into the fire, why don't we get clean?
Why don't we do it?!
Why don't we take back the power, why don't we keep it here?
Why don't we do it?!
Why don't we do it?!
Or why don't we rise from our ashes, why don't we fight?
Why don't we stand up and fight?
Eat my brains - rip off my head and suck out my brains
Eat my brains - rip off my head and suck out my brains
Suck on my thoughts and become wiser
Why don't we spread out our wings, why don't we fly away?
Why don't we do it?
Why don't we raise our fists and say what we have to say?
Why don't we do it?
Or why don't we run into the woods, oh why don't we hide?
Why don't we do it?!
Or why don't we rise from our ashes, why don't we fight?
Why don't we stand up and fight?
Eat my brains - rip off my head and suck out my brains
Eat my brains - rip off my head and suck out my brains
And moral of the story it goes a little something like this:
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Who's the strongest of us all
Who can do it, who can do it
Who's the strongest getting through it
Mirror, mirror on the wall
It's my reflection on parole
It's my shadow running free
It's leaving me, it's leaving me
Eat my brains - rip off my head and suck out my brains
Eat my brains - rip off my head and suck out my brains
Eat my brains - rip off my head and suck out my brains
Eat my brains - rip my head off and suck my brains off it's all yours
In "Eat My Brains" by Superbutt, the lyrics invite the listener to take action and make a change, while questioning why people don't act on their desires. The song explores different scenarios, such as jumping into the fire, running into the woods, spreading out wings, raising fists and fighting, as a way to encourage the listener to take a stand and do something. The chorus repeats the phrase "Eat my brains - rip off my head and suck out my brains" and adds the line "Suck on my thoughts and become wiser", suggesting that the listener should absorb the message and gain knowledge from it.
The lyrics also include a spoken segment, similar to a moral of the story, where the singer asks a mirror who is the strongest, and the answer is the reflection on parole, the shadow running free. This section adds an extra layer to the song, suggesting that the listener should look within and find their strength and power.
Overall, "Eat My Brains" is a call to action, urging the listener to take control of their life and make a change, while also highlighting the importance of absorbing and gaining knowledge from the experience.

And moral of the story it goes a little something like this:
The lesson to be learned is as follows:
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Asking a rhetorical question to reflect on oneself
Who's the strongest of us all
Who is the most resilient person?
Who can do it, who can do it
Who has the power to succeed?
Who's the strongest getting through it
Who can persevere through hardships the best?
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Reflecting on oneself again
It's my reflection on parole
It's my true self being set free from constraints
It's my shadow running free
It's my subconscious being released into the world
It's leaving me, it's leaving me
It's leaving my physical self behind
Eat my brains - rip my head off and suck my brains off it's all yours
Take all of me, everything I have to offer, and use it for your own benefit
