This song is about John Lilly, there is no denying that. The whole first verse describes the MKULTRA testing perfectly. As for the second verse and the chorus, your guess is as good as mine. But in the third he mentions the russian spies that Lilly's work was originally spsonsored for (the US wanted to be able to gain control over their minds and pump the spies for info, ironic). Sounds at the end like the spies are comin after him, which checks out with the Cyanide because that is an old KGB technique.
