One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest

One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest

Working as a night porter in the local mental institution

Taking LSD at the same time helped his idea for a book come to fruition

Ken Kesey was The Merry Prankster. Travelling the US

In his psychedelic school bus
Going from east to west

A psychonaught on an adventure Influencing whoevers mind was open

His deciples soaking up every controversial word spoken

Prove you've got what it takes. Take The Electric Kool Aid Acid Test

Then maybe one day you could write a masterpiece too

As brilliant as One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest.
