Lyrics

[Verse 1]
From my heart and from my hand
Why don't people understand my intention?
[Chorus]
Weird
Weird science
Plastic tubes and pots and pans
Bits and pieces and the magic from the hand
We're makin' weird science
[Verse 2]
Things I've never seen before
Behind bolted doors
Talent and imagination
Weird science
[Verse 3]
Not what teachers said to do
Makin' dreams come true
Living tissue, warm flesh
Weird science
[Verse 4]
Plastic tubes and pots and pans
Bits and pieces and
Bits and pieces and
[Chorus]
Bits of my creation
Is it real?
It's my creation
Ooh my creation
It's my creation
[Chorus]
Weird science
Weird
Weird science
[Verse 5]
Magic and technology
Voodoo dolls and chants
Electricity
We're makin' weird science
[Verse 6]
Fantasy and microchips
Shooting from the hip
Something different
We're makin' weird science
[Verse 7]
Pictures from a magazine
Diagrams and charts
Mending broken hearts
And makin' weird science
[Verse 8]
Something like a recipe
Bits and pieces and
Bits and pieces and
[Chorus]
Bits of my creation
Is it real?
It's my creation
I do not know
No hesitation
No heart of gold
Just flesh and blood
I do not know
I do not know
[Verse 9]
From my heart and from my hand
Why don't people understand my intentions?
[Chorus]
Weird science
Magic and technology
Voodoo dolls and chants
Weird science
[Verse 10]
Things I've never seen before
Behind bolted doors
Weird science
[Verse 11]
Not what teacher said to do
Bits and pieces and
Bits and pieces and
[Chorus]
Bits of my creation
Is it real?
It's my creation
I do not know
No hesitation
No heart of gold
Just flesh and blood
I do not know
It's my creation
It's my creation
My creation
My creation
It's my creation
[Verse 12]
From my heart and from my hand
Why don't people understand my intentions?
[Chorus]
Ooh, weird
Ooh, weird science
Weird
Weird science
Weird science
[Chorus]
Bits and pieces
Bits and pieces
Weird science
He's alive
[Chorus]
Bits and pieces
Weird
Oh, ooh, weird science
Weird science
Bits and pieces
Bits and pieces
Weird science
Weird
Weird science
Bits and pieces
[Chorus]
My creation
Is it real?
It's my creation
I do not know
My creation
Is it real?
Just flesh and blood
Just flesh and blood
Just flesh and blood
[Chorus]
Weird science
Weird science
Weird science
