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
 Play the Intro Riff:
 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
 End with a offbeat version of the Intro Riff
