Measuring Cups

Get out your measuring cups and we'll play a new game

Come to the front of the class and we'll measure your brain

We'll give you a complex and we'll give it a name

Get out your measuring cups and we'll play a new game

Can't have the cream when the crop and the cream are the same

Liquid or gas no more than the glass will contain

When you talk about the hand of glory

A tale that's rather grim and gory

Is it just another children's story that's been de-clawed?

When the tales of brothers Grimm and Gorey have been outlawed

I think they're gonna make you start over

You don't want to start over

Put your backpack on your shoulder

Be the good little soldier

Take your places now

'Cause we're all predisposed

Measuring cups, play a new game

Front of the class, measure your brain

Give you a complex and we'll give it a name

When you talk about the hand of glory

A tale that's rather grim and gory

Is it just another children's story that's been de-clawed?

When the tales of brothers Grimm and Gorey have been outlawed

Put your backpack on your shoulder

Be the good little soldier

It's no different when you're older

You're predisposed

That's all for questions now

The case is closed!
