In lieu of an abstract, here is a brief excerpt of the content:

-46Frontal Lobotomy There must be a lotion, a potion, A poultice that I could apply A spell I could cast Or a hex that would last Or a pill I could buy. I’ve been to brujos in shacks, I’ve seen charlatan quacks And I called on a wizard I knew But the sorcerer said I’d be better off dead, Said there’s nothing we wizards can do. I’m gonna get me a frontal lobotomy, Any old doctor will do I’m gonna get me a frontal lobotomy, Maybe then baby I’ll quit thinking ’bout you. I’m gonna get me a bottle in front of me, Any old whiskey will do. I’m gonna get me a bottle in front of me, Drink till the drinkin’ and the thinkin’ is through. Thinkin’ ’bout you is all that I do– I’m goin’ crazy baby thinkin’ ’bout you. You know, I talked to my preacher, And my second grade teacher And a prominent priest. Well, I consulted the eight ball, I talked to a shrink And my aunt who’s deceased. Then I went to Bombay To the Ashram to pray And sit with the holy Hindu, But the Baba just smiled, Said “God loves you, my child, But there’s nothing us gurus can do!” -47I ’m gonna get me a frontal lobotomy, Probably gonna take two. I’m gonna get me a bottle in front of me, Maybe then baby I’ll quit thinkin’ ’bout you! Copyright © 2002 Steven Fromholz Esteban Publishing (ASCAP) ...
