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

yes. just yes.
funny story: was listening to the ipod on “shuffle all songs” @ the gym (i call it my ibob b/c its almost totally all bob-related stuff) and this live version of “i am a scientist” came on from a coupla years ago - it gets to the end and he goes “i am a lost soul, i shit myself with rock n roll” man, i laughed so hard… thats what i love about bob… totally not afraid (or caring) of being retarded or making fun of himself. its great. rock on. that is all.
