One Man Stand ("Second Chance" Parody)

Sometimes time away from family helps you find yourself.

V1. My brain is big and wide

And by the way

My experiment failed today.

Skipper's rage climbs so high

And by the way

This isn't a game to play.

Bridge. I just saw a meteor shower tonight

Epiphany comes into mind.

Even Columbus didn't accomplish might

From just standing put. Right?

Chorus. Tell my brothers: master and others

I have done all I can

To please them with the sight that this is my mind

And they're never changing that.

I've been angry and now I'm stating

This scientist takes a one man stand.

V2. Private was crying for me

He was afraid

That my fate was on my way.

Skipper ignored me all before

With Rico's help,

He stays to hear all I say.

Bridge. I just saw a meteor shower tonight

Epiphany comes into mind.

Even Columbus didn't accomplish might

From just standing put. Right?

Chorus. Tell my brothers: master and others

I have done all I can

To please them with the sight that this is my mind

And they're never changing that.

I've been angry and now I'm stating

This scientist takes a one man stand.

Taking a stand, this is my stand.

Chorus. Tell my brothers: master and others

I have done all I can

To please them with the sight that this is my mind

And they're never changing that.

I've been angry and now I'm stating

This scientist takes a one man stand.

This scientist takes a one man stand.

This scientist takes a one man stand.
