Johnny Calls the Chemist

Johnny calls the chemist But the chemist doesn't come Her mind is in the twilight And Johnny hears the hum He wonders if she'll hear him In a night that's full of sound It could be that she loves him But the love is underground Johnny calls the chemist Johnny calls the chemist Johnny calls the chemist But the chemist doesn't come He shoots a mental arrow From the bow of his mind And piercing through her consciousness He wonders what he'll find She's moving to her lover As he stretches on the bed And pulling back the cover Thinks of Johnny boy instead Johnny calls the chemist Johnny calls the chemist Johnny calls the chemist But the chemist doesn't come She's making little headway In a passage flicks a light A lone car on the highway Calls for Johnny in the night She feels the silent offering That he's making to the sky And wonders if he'll hear her 'Cause she's just about to die Johnny calls the chemist Johnny calls the chemist Johnny calls the chemist But the chemist doesn't come Slipping into unconsciousness She meets him in the air He's burning her with fire She overcomes the fear, She sits quite still and takes it 'Cause she knows it's for her good Even though she finds him wicked She just stays there like she should Johnny calls the chemist Johnny calls the chemist Johnny calls the chemist But the chemist doesn't come Johnny's travelling faster He's spinning in her head Make no mistake about it Their history will be read Then Johnny calls the chemist But the chemist doesn't come She's back inside the twilight And Johnny hears the hum Johnny calls the chemist Johnny calls the chemist Johnny calls the chemist But the chemist doesn't come Johnny calls the chemist But the chemist doesn't come Johnny calls the chemist But the chemist doesn't come Johnny calls the chemist But the chemist doesn't come But the chemist doesn't come But the chemist doesn't come
