Just a UK dude on a great science show
Looking for the time of his life
In the Top Gear world we all know him as well
They all call him Hamster

Locking one more caravan dead-on into his sights
Fill the thing full of stuff that goes boom
He has sped around on a wheelchair
Which was pow'red by compressed gas.

Richard Hammond is his name
For three seasons, maybe more
He walked that fine line between smart and insane

That was Brainiac, Brainiac was the show
Abuse science like you never have before
That was Brainiac, Brainiac was the show
Abuse science like you never have before

On the ice blue line of insanity
Is a place they've often seen
The show got its start on Sky TV
G4 sort of held it

One day others that they call Brainiacs too
Went and made some doner kebabs
Did it with the help of a dynamite stick
Watch the hunger go away

There's that Jon Tickle guy too
Posing teasers and his own
Neat experiments, like a swim in some syrup

That was Brainiac, Brainiac was the show
Abuse science like you never have before
That was Brainiac, Brainiac was the show
Abuse science like you never have before

Dr. Bunhead, Granny too
The Prof and the British folk
On the show that dares that razor-edged risk

That was Brainiac, Brainiac was the show
Abuse science like you never have before
That was Brainiac, Brainiac was the show
Abuse science like you never have before
