If You Wanna Use Your Head

from Sanity by The Songs of Tom Smith

/

lyrics

Every morning a traffic jam to work
Like so many other liberal intellectual automotons
In a 5 hour mushroom trip
I learnt more about the brain than years of research in psychology

CHORUS
If you wanna use your head
You have to go out of your mind

Take responsibility for your own mind
Or be programmed by the interests of corporate government
They sacked me from my academic post
For giving staff and students psychedelic substances

CHORUS x2

LSD was illegal I made it
A League of Spiritual Discovery sacrament
The psychological test they gave me
In prison was the very one I had fashioned them

I falsified the questionnaire
To make myself conformist and conventional
So they put me in a low security prison
I escaped the US to French Algeria

CHORUS x2
