Laughing At The Guru Lyrics

Well I was walkin' along just the other day

I got stopped by a man givin'
somethin' away

He gave me a picture, he gave me a sign

And a stick
of incense he said was mine



So he asked me to come to a get
together

The very next day, no matter the weather

There were men,
there were ladies, all lookin' the same

I said slow down boy now what's
the game



Pass the karma, or somethin' like that

Just bang
the drum and pass the hat, sayin' -

Ooh, meditation, that's the name of
the game

Ooh, save the nation, that's the name of the game



Well I stayed a while and had a cup of tea

Till they said the master
would talk to me

He had a long black beard and long black hair

And
he looked like a sunburnt teddy bear



So I just stopped dead and
rubbed my eyes

Slapped my thigh, and split my sides

Well he just
looked away with a faded air

Said you can laugh, I'm a millionaire



Well I stopped again, cleared my throat

'Cause that don't sound
like a billy goat

Well I'll shave my head though I know it's a mess

But I draw the line at wearin' a dress, I say -

Ooh meditation, that's
the name of the game

Ooh, save the nation, that's the name of the game



Ooh, I've seen the li-ight, God is with me now, I'm alri-ight

I
eat no beef, just milk and honey

I stop you in the street and take your
money



Can't stop laughin' at the guru - he means everything he
say-ays

Can't stop laughin' at the guru - he can't hear us anyway-ay

Can't stop laughin' at the guru - he means everything he say-ays

Can't
stop laughin' at the guru - he can't hear us anyway-ay

Can't stop laughin'
at the guru - he means everything he say-ays-acapo
