"Trip at the Brain" is a song by American crossover thrash band Suicidal Tendencies. It is the first track on their 1988 third album How Will I Laugh Tomorrow When I Can't Even Smile Today and was the album's first single. It is also the first track on the 2010 compilation album Playlist: The Very Best of Suicidal Tendencies, which was not endorsed by the band.

Music video

The music video for the song was directed by Bill Fishman (who directed the first two videos "Institutionalized" and "Possessed to Skate") and received heavy rotation on MTV. The video begins with a crazed scientist finding a brain from a garbage can and says "there's nothing wrong with this brain". The music begins when the scientist is in his office swinging a brain on a chain in front of frontman Mike Muir, who is tied on a chair and later escapes.

In the video, the band can be seen performing on top of a brain.

John Cusack made a cameo in this video
