about

"The Brothers Mad" closes up the whole affair, a sort of theme song with Rush-like riffs and rapid-fire drum fills. A final note about driving on in the face of futility because...that's the only thing left to do. Probably the surprise of this EP: it's uplifting. Best line: "Aint no damn good seeking perdition, when the main mission is 'Heal thyself, physician,' Just be glad."

lyrics

"The Brothers Mad" [vonHummer]
Aint no damn good asking permission when acquisition, under some conditions, can't be had, but you can't tell that to the Brothers Mad, you can't tell that to the Brothers Mad...Aint no damn use seeking perdition, when the main mission is "Heal thyself, physician," just be glad, but you can't tell that to the Brothers Mad, you can't tell that to the Brothers Mad...You can't tell that to the brothers, the Brothers Mad...The Brothers Mad...You say we're insane like it's bad, but we prefer to stress our foxiness, and, yes, my dears, our contract's iron clad, so call us like you see us: the Brothers Mad...Aint no damn time to have a vision when raw ambition underwhelms sedition like some fad, but you can't tell that to the Brothers Mad, you can't tell that to the Brothers Mad...Aint no damn way to fight attrition when suspicion kills competition: dead men don't wear plaid, but you can't tell that to the Brothers Mad, you can't tell that to the Brothers Mad...
