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
