in the Red Bra

Heard you're just in from New Delhi
And your guru's done quite well
He's worshipped cattle, now he worships bullish stocks
While you're with Krishnas and with Moonies
Living plots for Loonie Tunies
Sadly looking for your psyche under rocks.
If perchance you have been born,
Why you might be a Capricorn,
It can be easily determined by the date.
And if this image isn't "you,"
Well it will simply have to do
For who are you to tamper with your charted fate?
CHORUS:
Biofeedback, EST, therapeutic LSD,
Pop psychology to shape how you behave,
It's no wonder your tail's draggin,
Dr. Psycho's tonic wagon
Has Pied Pipered you into a living grave.
It would save you lots of pain
To stop this introspective drain,
Yet somehow in the clutch of life you've stripped your gears
Now you play games of mouse and cat
To find out where your head is at,
Well let me ask you, have you looked between your ears?
CHORUS
So you think your life a throw-in,
Spinning like a protozoan,
With no exits between "Start Here" and "You Lose,"
But the truth's another story,
For you've many doors to glory
Yet can't seem to find the strength of mind to choose.
Through the full age of mankind
It's quite impossible to find
A group who in their human fate had such a voice.
Yes think what heights we could obtain
If we could just harness the brain
And if we weren't so darned confounded by free choice.
CHORUS
That's my message, almost done,
But there is one more thing to say,
When you find out where you're coming from,
Go back there right away.
