lyrics

I gotta go home I'm so uptight
Meditation helps if the Mantra is right
Rocky take my calls and I'll return the favor
If I survive the ride on the elevator
My horoscope said I need a long vacation
In both the local and state publication
Said an effort when just will be rewarded
and sinister men will be one day thwarted
I called to see if you were alright
I had a bad dream about you last night

I can't keep on living this way: waiting by the phone
The Mantras you have given me they help me when you're gone
But they're not helping much I miss your tender touch
I just want to know if we'll be together this time next year

I just want to know if my mentor's home
I go there when I feel most alone
I've consummated prayers and my will to starve
by eating my lunch in the courtyard
it was one ripe banana and an english muffin
every verb is a nail pried out of my coffin
