Casagrandeville

Went to the freezer, for a macaque brain
Thought I would do a double label
Spent 9 months a stainin', Went to the scope,
When I looked in I hadn't a hope
 
Wastin away again in Casagrande Lab,
Looking for my lost layer of cells,
Some people claim that there's a post-doc to blame,
But I know, it could be my fault.
 
Went to the surgery, pulled out some mice,
Thought we'd inject some ENDO-N,
Did some reactions, sure got some action,
What it means we haven't a clue.
Wastin away again in Casagrande Lab,
Looking for my lost layer of cells,
Some people claim that there's a post-doc to blame,
But I know, it's probl'ly my fault.
 
Viv went to her email, looked in the help files,
Thought she'd send out that she would be gone.
Then Dr. O'Leary, got kind of weary
of thousands of messages to him alone.

Looking for my lost layer of cells,
Some people claim that there's a post-doc to blame,
But I know, it's mostly my fault.
 
Sneak out on Wednesdays, go to the lobby
Playin with Franko and all of the guys,
Packin a whistle, forgot my Nissl,
Hopin my sections don't fall off the slides.

Some people claim that there's a post-doc to blame,
But I know, it's my own damn fault.
 
Must be a reason, stayed 22 seasons,
I'm guessin that I could be slightly insane.
We ain't got no windows, to look on the courtyard,
Still it's better than being a security guard.

But I know, it's Vivien's fault.
