A New Brain Company - Craniotomy lyrics

[DR. BERENSTEIN] Son of a gun, I see it Your blood vessel's pinched and coiled Gordon, now I have a name for what you have; And your designation [DR. BERENSTEIN/[?]] Arterial Venous Malformation [GORDON/ENSEMBLE] Wait, Arterial- I'm sorry? [NANCY D.] Arterial Venous Malformation.

BERENSTEIN] Of course, the decision to operate is entirely yours [THE MINISTER] It's a high-risk operation He can't guarantee success [DR. BERENSTEIN] I wish I could [THE MINISTER] But you really have no options So they only answer, more or less Is absolutely yes [DR. BERENSTEIN] I can't guarantee success [NANCY D.] No one can [MIMI] But we really have no options [THE MINISTER] No options [ROGER] So the only answer, more or less Is absolutely yes [ENSEMBLE] Absolutely yes [DR. BERENSTEIN] And now I have to go My kids and I have tickets to see Fun Home Well? Good [ENSEMBLE] So craniotomy tomorrow
