Peter Doherty - The Epidemiologist

Lyrics
The best laid plans can oft go to fuckery
Run-down B&Bs can turn to luxury
A wish that is wasted still can be granted
Hope that is doped still can be planted
I search and I search
I lurch headlong into atrocities
With an exponential known only to epidemiologists
Little pink Kenzo, little blue benzos
Hip Hop, Be-Bop, old blues and punk rocker
Heads that are shrunken still can be clever
Ships that are sunken can still hold treasure
I search and search
And lurch headlong into atrocities
With a velocity known only to very few astronauts
Few are, few are... very few astronauts
Few are, few are...
I search and I search
And lurch... I lurch headlong into such atrocities
With an exponential known only to epidemiology
Dashiell Hammett
Émile Ajar
Peter Lorre and Humphrey Bogart
Jean Seberg
Daniel Darc
Panic in the streets and panic in Needle Park
Oh yes, I search and I search
And I lurch, I lurch headlong into atrocity
With an exponential known only to very few epi...
Epi, epi, epi, epidemiologists
Epi, epi, epi, epi, epi, epidemiologists
Epi, epi, epi, epidemiologists
