In Switzerland, in forty-three
Albert Hofmann made history
He synthesized LSD
And took a dose so he could see

He went on a bicycle ride
Through the streets, he did glide
The world was transformed before his eyes
As he soared through the psychedelic skies

At first he thought he’d lost his mind
But soon he found a peace of mind
Colors danced and patterns swirled
As he saw the beauty of the world

He went on a bicycle ride
Through the streets, he did glide
The world was transformed before his eyes
As he soared through the psychedelic skies

From that day on, the world was changed
Psychedelic research was arranged
And people saw with open minds
The beauty that they’d left behind

He went on a bicycle ride
Through the streets, he did glide
The world was transformed before his eyes
As he soared through the psychedelic skies

So let us all remember him
For the door that he helped to open
To a world that we can explore
Through the psychedelic metaphor.
