Guru #1

43 21
life of a working class guru
has just begun

not easy to become guru’d
how many hours does a guru work?
5 guru hours = a 40 hour week
but does a guru get 8 hours sleep?
what wheat does a guru eat?

so go find yourself a guru
its not cryptic code
cuz hey, now you can google your guru
or go straight to www.guru.com
or wait for that guru
to materialize
don’t be surprised
cuz a guru
always comes in disguise

there it goes down 5th avenue
simon
wow, check that smile
that ain’t no average smile
that’s the smile of a
real
living, loving guru
free and on the loose

a london guru
a new york guru
an LA guru
PR guru
ad guru
media guru
finance guru
guru at the Chateau
cuz a guru ain’t restricted
to a himalayan cave
the guru has broken free
from weird freaky sheets
it’s armani suits
with a perfect guru fit
prada shoes
bvlgari jewels

no lama guru
no ghandi guru
no maharishi guru
no hendrix guru
no lennon guru
no marley guru
no dead gurus
only living, loving gurus

no longer do gurus
tell to the time from the sun
it’s rolex
and every guru has one

number plate is simple
it’s GURU#1

at the airport
you got club lounge
exec lounge
and of course
the guru lounge
a place where gurus can connect
and subscribe to guru weekly

some fly coach
some fly first class
i fly the only way i know
that’s guru class

and catch it tonight
on CNN
as Anderson Cooper
investigates
the sweet life
of the guru
and asks the question
"is there a hidden guru
lying dormant,
dormant within you?"

is there
a guru
ready to jump out
create
meditate
speculate
negotiate
communicate

tonight
all will be answered
as Anderson investigates
in a two hour special
not to be missed
you
me
and the mysteries
of the contemporary guru

and now also available
on youtube
so find that tag
tag goo
tag goo goo
tag goo goo goo
tag goo goo goo goo goo
tag goo goo
tag goo

cuz if there’s a guru online
it just could be
a true
living, loving guru
who sees your
designs
blueprints
scripts
mega sounds
perfect comic timing
and he’s ready to meet
offline
out on main street
ready to be your
very own
living, loving guru
and make it happen

or get ready
to download a guru
and stick in on your AMEX
stick it on your pod
yes, it’s steve jobs
the one and only
living
iGuru
iGuru
iGuru
