Verse:
When I was stuck he'd make me memorize elaborate curses
Tinctures and formulas 
To ditch the choir and flip the verses
My whole foundation came unglued
When I tried to humanize by ambient light

Chorus:
Dipping swords in metaphors yeah 
But what does he know?
He's go the whole world behind him 
He's Brian Eno (Brian Eno)
Brian Eno! (Brian Eno!)
