Me and Buddha
Song by Andrew Kerr:

Me and Buddha

I was hanging out with Buddha on a Friday night
And I know he drinks Rolling Rock 'cause me and Buddha,
we've always been kinda tight
Well the other night, he shook me up, he was a bit confused
He leaned in close and said, I'm worried about something Drew
(that's what he calls me)

He said, lately I've been wondering, what if I got it wrong
Millions of people following me and my confidence is gone
I mean what if Jesus was the real deal, what if I'm nothing but a fake
What if Nirvana's just a myth, and I made a big mistake

Buddha he been drinking, and he's a little down on himself
Buddha, he been drinking, and he's talking about repenting for his sins
He's giving up on meditation, and he wants to be born again

Well I tried to talk to him, I said Buddha, you're the best at what you do
And all those prophets and messiahs, dawg they got nothing on you
I mean you're the king of spiritual enlightenment, come on,
that's gotta be pretty cool
People shaving their heads and chanting Ohmm just to be like you

He said yea, but lately I've just been feeling out of style
and out of step with the times, I think I'm in a rut
We need to get you out of those robes and into some bell-bottom jeans,
Buddha, you need to loosen up
Yea, but I'm overweight and I'm out of shape, look at my beer gut
I said Buddha, that's the beauty of it, they rub your belly for good luck

Buddha he been drinking, and he's a little down on himself
Buddha, he been drinking, and he's talking about repenting for his sins
He's giving up on meditation, and he wants to be born again

I helped him from his barstool, I said Buddha we better get your but to bed
Before someone overhears what you've been saying and rumors start to spread
You'll be hurting in the morning in your old sandal shoes
It's the fifth Noble Truth, even Buddha's get the blues

Buddha he been drinking, and he's a little down on himself
Buddha, he been drinking, and he's talking about repenting for his sins
He's giving up on meditation, and he wants to be born again

RE: Me and Buddha
Here's some thoughts to ponder, courtesy of the Crash Test Dummies:

And if it is really true
what they say
about how when you die
your life passes before you?re eyes,
just what the hell does that mean anyhow?
It took you X number of years
before you got to the dying part,
and now all that time
is supposed somehow to be
compressed into a "flash"?
Does this mean you relive
every great sh!t you ever took,
every drunk night that you made an ass of yourself,
every time you whacked yourself on the forehead
thinking of those very drunk-and-you-were-an-arsehole nights,
every candy bar you stole,
every lie you ever told no matter how big or small,
everyone you ever laid,
every time you had to mow the lawn?
So this is how it is then:
First you have to go through all the crap that is your life,
and then, just to rub a little salt on the wound,
you have to go through all of it again
in fast motion while you?re laying there fawking DYING.
So someone, please, just shoot me from behind
out of the blue, so I don?t even know what hit me.
Cause I sure as hell don?t want to have to go through the whole
damn thing all over again.

In what voice shall I beckon thee?
Is it Allah?...or Buddha?

I think it's rediculous that people so easily degrade any religion that doesn't agree with Christian ideology. If I posted some song about how Christ was wrong, and how he believes in reincarnation, everyone would freak.

RE: Me and Buddha
I agree 100% with you Tarpy. We can disagree with each other without blasting beliefs and people of that faith. If I disrespect someone else's beliefs how do I think they will reciprecate to mine? Hang on a second here please...

Well shuck my puppies! If'n it's on da internet it's gotta be true! 8)

And sense when does a devot Buddhist, such as yourself, acknowlage the existance of the Antichrist (and thereby the existance of God)?

To Whom It May Concern:

I wanted to apologize for my previous post, posted on May 9, 2001.

In my previous post, I responded flippantly and without regard for others. I would like to extend my apology to all that were offended.

I hope that those of you, who may have posted without regard for others, will follow my example of kindness and compassion for all.

Sincerely,

Tarp Lloyd Rat

A kind post Tarpy but I'd not start calling people out until you have been well on your new path and have gained a bit more credibility. Kudos anyhow.
