Here is lyrics to an obscrue song by Eric Burdon & The Animals 1968 called, "Year of the guru" Here it goes..... My leader told me to jump in the river The river was deep and the weather was winter After a sailer very kindly saved me My leader told me, you'd better take it easy I took it so easy my leader called me lazy Through the lack of red meat Everything was getting hazy Friends looked at me and said, Man, you gotta be crazy Oh, oh leader My leader said son you'd better get yourself together Never mind the fools who know what we're getting into But a forty mile walk would do us both a world of good And he sat down and watched me take off down the road Well, I walked so far my feet began to bleed If this was good for me I just couldn't see it A motorist picked me up and said Look man, you must be crazy Oh, oh leader Oh, oh leader My leader came to see me in a hospital bed Well at least I really knew that my leader really cared After giving me a second-hand roach He said where's your donation man, It's all for a good cause. He left me all alone to work the riddle out But I just couldn't make it so I began to shout They stuck a hypodermic deep down into me Said, look out nurse I think we got a loony Oh, oh leader Okay baby follow me now Follow your leader All right Now here I sit in a state-run asylum Limitless, friendless but much more together I decided to do some good book readin' About the art of people leadin' Now I'm the leader and they're being led What's the matter if they're crazy till you hear what I've said Being the leader is really where its at But just how long can a good thing last Oh, oh leader Oh, oh leader Now listen to this baby This is the year of the guru Now the thing to do is to ask yourself What can a guru do for me? Then you say to yourself I gotta get a guru [ Year Of The Guru Lyrics on http://www.lyricsmania.com/ ] -- Thanks for being part of "PoliticalForum" at Google Groups.
