Album Cover I Am A Scientist

I Am A Scientist

Guided By Voices

5

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
