Lyrics

Oh, Tim

Oh Tim, they just don’t understand you
Your philosophy and LSD
The professors they all reprimand you
For experimental psychiatry

Oh Tim, they just don’t understand you
You scare them with radical thoughts
The senior cadets do command you
Be silent and do what we’ve taught

With proper set and setting, you can be free and unconfined
In order to use your head, you have to go out of your mind

Oh Tim, they just don’t understand you
Eccentricities and PHD
Your prescription is taken, the mind is awakened
Reality’s constructs are shaken

A man with a gavel once named you
The most dangerous man in world
You then re-frame and reclaim the name
Of dissident philosopher

You’d rather starve in the gutter than be ordinary and resigned
In order to use your head, you have to go out of your mind

Oh Tim, they just aren’t understanding
Think for yourself and find what you seek
Authority is a pill best taken
With a grain of salt and tongue in cheek
Yes, with a grain of salt and tongue in cheek
