I should've been a guru Young girls for the pickings Followers wash my asshole And grown men weep at my face I think I could've made a go Smile always and act like I know The perfect secrets of the cosmic wow But it's too late to be a guru now I should've been a guru Talk shows with Larry King White robes in a limousine A long beard and a big ring I know I could've been at peace A happy face and perfect teeth Free eats off the sacred cow But it's too late to be a guru now I should've been a guru Sitting still up on a hill No stress no mess No sins to confess No action no friction Never watched Pulp Fiction Just laugh while the people bow But it's too late to be a guru now I should've been a guru

Everybody must take their shoes off at the airport Everybody must plug their car in at the carport Everybody still loves Britney when her dress's short Everybody has to have a quick and snarky retort But things here aren't really all that bad Since everybody must get rehab They stone you when you don't wear your chador They stone you and they call you a whore They stone you in Iraq and in Iran They stone you and then they cut off your hand But here things aren't really quite as bad Still everybody must get rehab Everybody must get their free botox injection Everybody must be available for inspection Everybody must get a way rad looking cell phone Everybody must pay back the interest on that home loan But I guess things aren't quite so bad Still everybody must get rehab They stone you when your homeless and your poor They stone you when you can't say who your for They stone you like they stoned Tupac Shakur They even stone you when you close the white house door But I guess things aren't quite so bad Still everybody must get rehab

I Politician 02:33
I’ve got a little think tank I call it home I ain’t too highly paid though Just flesh and bone I’ll put a little thingie out On video cassette And hope the Minister of Propaganda Don’t get too upset Chorus: Still it all comes though The United Matrix of America Pagan rhythms out of Africa Pagan shipments out of Kathmandu From the Aztecs to the Ming Genetic carnival on wings We’ve got a little freak show We call it “The Hunchback Squeaks” And then I politician I get on up and I speaks “I got a lotta rage” he cries “And lots of irony” You’re baboons in a cage” he lies “I’m going to set you free” Chorus Gotta get back to L.A. now Got a media jones Talking with the network boys and taking out more loans I get 3 minutes on NBC Attack the ruling class I've got 4 friends at NASA now If I have to move my ass Chorus
