[Intro] [Spoken] Halloween night... Full moon... Everybody's wearin' masks... And somehow... Somewhere... Somebody told this girl... I wanted to eat her brains! [Shouted] Whoa yeah! [Verse] You came struttin' through the spotlight shine Actin' like your head was the grand design Lookin' at me like I had some secret plan Honey I was just tryin' to be your man You got nervous every time I'd come around Like there was danger hidden in the sound I couldn't figure what was on your mind But somethin' already felt MiZAligned! [Pre-Chorus] I wanted the fire not the thing in your skull Wanted the spark when the whole room's full Who put that story in your head tonight? I wanted the thrill not a zombie bite Yeah somehow your compass MiZzed left and right! [Chorus] MiZAligned baby way off the rail MiZzed the map, MiZzed the mark, MiZzed the trail How could you think that's what I'd do? I'm lookin' for rock and roll, not chew on you! [Verse] You read a little danger between the lines Turned a wink and a laugh into warning signs Every time I'd lean you'd back away Like I was huntin' for a buffet! You MiZheard the talk, and MiZread the signs Started chasin' shadows and imaginary lines Everybody whisperin' from behind the scenes Talkin' like they knew exactly what it means [Pre-Chorus] I wanted your heart in the Saturday glow Wanted your move when the amplifiers blow Somewhere the message took a wrong turn fast I wanted the moment, not a cannibal cast Now we're laughin' at a forecast from the past! [Chorus] MiZAligned baby what'd you hear? How'd the story get so weird? How could you think that's what I'd do? I'm lookin' for your heart, not chew on you! [Verse] Then you finally told me what was on your mind Baby I nearly lost mine You thought your brains were what I'd dine upon Whoa baby, where'd that idea come from? Now I finally see why you've been hard to find Why every signal got so MiZAligned You thought I was dreamin' about your gray matter instead When I was dreamin' about you in my head [Chorus] MiZAligned baby what'd you hear? How'd the story get so weird? How could you think that's what I'd do? I'm lookin' for your heart, not chew on you! [Verse] Halloween night and the moon hung low Everybody had a story everybody knew Instead of askin' me baby what's on my mind You went treasure huntin' for things you'd never find You got MiZAligned now ain't that a crime? Could've saved us both a whole lotta time You believed the chatter, you believed the hype While I was standin' there holdin' the real thing tight! [Bridge] Maybe the rumors got under your skin Maybe the midnight let the ghosts walk in Maybe the costumes blurred the truth and lies Maybe the moon played tricks before your eyes But baby, that theory never qualified! So let's re-sync baby right here tonight Put the rumors in the shadows leave the truth in the light No more MiZread signals, no more crossed up signs Let's get this whole thing back in line You know my heart now you know my design No gray matter menu, no Frankenstein Just you and me and a little more time Getting everything un-MiZAligned [Final Chorus] MiZAligned baby that's the truth Built a whole legend with no real proof Thought it was your brains that I would dine... But the whole damn picture was MiZAligned! MiZAligned baby way off the rail MiZzed the map, MiZzed the mark, MiZzed the trail How could you think that's what I'd do? I'm lookin' for rock and roll, not chew on you! [Outro] [extended blues rock jam] [harmonica and guitar unison melody] [Spoken] So here's the story if you're keepin' score You MiZheard You MiZread You MiZjudged You got MiZinformed But now we're standin' eye to eye No brains on the menu! Just a little love A little rock and roll And a whole lot less... MiZalignment! [Shouted] Whoa yeah! MiZAligned! MiZAligned! MiZAligned! [Gang Vocals] I guess you can't love a zombie who's fine!
