Lyrics

I have a degree
That's nice
In alternative therapy
Okay
Took an online course for a week or two
Maybe we should--
I think we should begin with a nice bit of Reiki
Reiki?
Unblock your Chi
What's Chi?
It's doo be doo be tra la la
It's holistic therapy
What does that mean?
It's energy
Vibrations and something magnets
And doo-be-diddly-pom-pom-pom
Now piss
What?
Piss
I just--
Piss into this
I don't have--
I'll analyze your isotopes
And something, something, quantum, quantum
I'm stuck
I'm just--
I think you're allergic to gluten
Stuck, I'm
It's like I feel like I'm trapped in a loop
Like I'm unstuck in time
Well I think cutting out gluten
I'm...
Is the smartest solution
Fine
That or a diet of soup
Soup?
Made of rhino foreskin
I think I've lost my mind
How about
I can't seem to find my way out of
An enema?
What?
Would you like an enema?
Existentially, I'm --
Some essential oils
Essentially, I'm --
Organic teas
Who needs enemas with friends like -- ?
I don't even know if I believe what I'm sayin'
This guy is clearly nuts but he is desperate and he's payin'
Statistically he might as well be sittin' home and prayin'
For all the good that I can do
I don't have a frickin' clue what I'm doin'
Though there are things that we just don't know
It doesn't mean you shouldn't give giving an answer a go
Now open your buttocks a wee bit
I'm not sure how this will help
Just want to get to the bottom of it
I'm stuck
I'm just stuck
I have a PhD
Finally
In psychiatric pharmacology
I specialize in mental illness --
Good
In cows
What?
Let's treat your depression
With a course of Fluoxitol
I'm not depressed
You're not?
No!
You must be delusional
So take some Acepromazine
And a couple of Clocapromine
And quietly, I'd advise ya
To try this tranquilizer
Although maybe you should just take half
Okay
It says whole ones for cows
I'm not a --
And half for calves
Right
I don't even know if I believe what I'm sayin'
This guy is clearly nuts but he is desperate and he's payin'
Statistically he might as well be sittin' home and prayin'
For all the good that I can do
I don't have a friggin' clue
In my medicine cupboard
There's a bunch of L. Ron Hubbard
There are only twelve steps and they shouldn't take long
We just need a sample of
Your stool and your semen
You have Satan within you
We must exorcise your demons
Take this pill
Read this book
Eat your vegetables uncooked
It's your karma
It's just toxins
It's for constipated oxens
Well that ought to loosen you up
I am stuck
Fuck, okay
One: I'm still sleeping and this I'm just dreaming
And two: it's a prank, and everyone's in on it
Three: it's a flashback from when I was twenty and ate magic mushrooms and thought I was Aquaman
Four: it's some kind of reality show
Five: it's amnesia
Six: it's a stroke
I think I am losing my my..
 [EXPERTS]
I don't even know if I believe what I'm sayin'
This guy is clearly nuts but he is desperate and he's payin'
Statistically he might as well be sittin' home and prayin'
For all the good that I can do, I don't have a frickin' clue what I'm doin'
Though there are things that we just don't know
It doesn't mean you shouldn't give giving an answer a go
You just have to open your mind
That'll be five hundred bucks
What the f--
A check is fine
Fine
Karma
Toxins
Enema
Oxen
Jesus
Xenu
Alcohol!
