about

The mind—it can be our enemy or our friend, depending on the diet we give it. We feed it with our thoughts. A mind fed a constant diet of negative or selfish thoughts can devour us. Better to go to the little bit of extra trouble to feed it 200 Proof Absolute Truth. Ask for it in the Mind Food section of your local supermarket. Or don't be surprised if it bites the hand that feeds it.

lyrics

Oh, mind, it’s time we had a little conversation
I can’t stand you runnin' around all over creation
And I’m to blame—I can’t seem to tame you at all
You are a 24/7 obscene phone call

I try to meditate. I chant two hours a day
Try my best to keep them bad desires away
Soon as you see some scantily-clad bimbo
My meditation flies right out the window

Oh, my dear mind, why can’t you just stay on the trail -
for a little while? Tell me why you got to fight me tooth and nail.

Now, luckily for me, I got instructions—
An owners’ manual full of Vedic injunctions
Book is on the shelf-I really ought to read it
Like anything else—a mind is what you feed it

Oh, my dear mind, why can’t you just stay on the trail
for a little while? Tell me why you got to fight me tooth and nail.
