lyrics

Why shiver baby? ,
The shakes don't suit you well,
I'm on fire lately,
Why contort yourself,
When you could get licks off of me? ,

Why so sullen baby? ,
Your face might freeze like that,
I've got heaven waiting,
Why keep holding back,
When you could get bliss off of me? ,

Your luck runs here,
Where are you going? ,
It's so clear,
Still you don't know it.

Who needs gurus baby?
Who needs hubbard? ,
I've got lessons waiting,
They just don't cover,
Why don't you get wise off of me,

Your luck runs here,
Where are you going? ,
It's so clear,
But still you don't know it.

Stuff those mushrooms baby,
Lose that hookah,
I pack a wallop,
And I'm no palooka,
Why don't you get hits...,
Why don't you get rich...,
Why don't you get bliss...,
Off of me
