Jon English - 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 light, God is with me now, I'm alright
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 says
Can't stop laughin' at the guru, he can't hear us anyway
Can't stop laughin' at the guru, he means everything he says
Can't stop laughin' at the guru, he can't hear us anyway
Can't stop laughin' at the guru, he means everything he says
