well when i was a kid i had a mind like a steel trap
a photographic memory nothing could seem to slip past me
those days have long since past
now it seems like i'm losing that mind well at least
i'm having a grand old time
let's take a long long stroll down short term memory lane
i forgot your face and i never even knew your name
i'd forget my head if it wasn't screwed on
i guess i'm the one to blame

synapses keep misfiring bill collectors keep on calling
don't know what's shaking inside my head if i forget
i keep forgetting i'll forget i'm dead
let's take a long long stroll down short term memory lane
this loss of memory makes me so damn mad that i could scream
but i can't remember to complain
