Re: Gene Wilder

"The Name of the Brain"
ttto "The Name of the Game"
New words Jeff Urs, July 2007

One mighty form, one brilliant brain:
Two from whom life had departed.
One giant sage sewn from the twain;
Life then with lightning restarted.

Success at my very first try;
How the glory enfolds me!
Still, I see from the look in your eye
There's a thing you've not told me.
So I wanna know

What's the name of the brain
That we just shocked to life anew?
What's the name of the brain
Now directing those massive shoes?

Tell me now, 'cause I need to know;
See, I have my doubts, and they're starting to grow:
See, he often shrieks, but he never talks;
Though he's hardly weak, seems the guy can hardly walk!

When I trusted you, did you let me down?
It was Delbruck's brain that I said I'd need from you;
If this isn't his, then whose?
I wanna know, oh, yes, I wanna know

What's the name of the brain?

Thanks! I see I saw too much, though; that second "See," should be "'Cause".
