We meditated in India
but we better sing
about our frustrations
Half of it is humbug
nice throw-away songs
to fall asleep to or
about being in love, fighting
over a woman, monkeys
and mirrors on your shoe-tips
to peek at an excitement
you don't see
so that we reach you
with the other half
- Fame is a roller coaster
you always get out at the bottom
- Finding peace within yourself
is the beginning
of the revolution
- Black birds also sing
beautifully, don't break their wings
- and stop feeding
fat pigs
- Live wisely, no sweets
It's bad for your teeth
Begin at the beginning
and strike out all conceitedness
