Miscellaneous
I Am A Scientist
I am a scientist — i seek to understand me
All of my impurities and evils yet unknown
I am a journalist — i write to you to show you
I am an incurable
And nothing else behaves like me
And i know what’s right
But i’m losing sight
Of the clues for which i search and choose
To abuse
To just unlock my mind
Yeah, and just unlock my mind
I am a pharmacist
Prescriptions i will fill you
Potions, pills and medicines
To ease your painful lives
I am a lost soul
I shoot myself with rock & roll
The hole i dig is bottomless
But nothing else can set me free
And i know what’s right
But i’m losing sight
Of the clues for which i search and choose
To abuse
To just unlock my mind
Yeah, and just unlock my mind
I am a scientist — i seek to understand me
I am an incurable and nothing else behaves like me
Everything is right
Everything works out right
Everything fades from sight
Because that’s alright with me
