Like all the best songs, this one is a true story.
lyrics
"Lead on," say the wise man, to the fellow in distress.
"Believe in holy virtue of these stages of undress."
Nothing doing. Something's brewing, sinister, underground.
My Bodhisattva winks again. Her hand starts going round and round.
The ritual begins tonight, but I must never speak.
Fear is for the lonely man. Restraint is for the weak.
This tantric shit, I must admit, is highly underrated.
Our minds evolve in ecstasy, while flesh remains sedated.
Experience is where it's at. Let chaos reign supreme.
We watch Baraka stoned again, make love inside our dream.
I know I'm slipping further down. She starts to take her toll.
The instinct won't suppress if I relinquish all control.
Bodies hardly touching now. I don't know when to quit.
Bodhisattva reaches out to bends the rules a bit.
She leads me down the final path and moves into position.
It's always more exciting when you don't have permission.
Stop the magic roundabout, can't take it any more.
The goddess only stares at me and breaks another law.
My spirit self uncoils within, my mantra humming low.
This habit I've tried so hard to break gets caught in the undertow.
She smells like roses. She tastes like wine.
Even when she sweats, she looks so fine.
If I could run she'd be worth chasing after.
She's my Bodhisattva.
I always want what I can't have.
