“I GOT DEM (REINCARNATION)  BLUES”

 

I got dem meat body,

don’t know how I got down,

musta’ got shot down,

stuck in my head, blues.

 

I got dem titty suckin’,

sleepin’, walkin’

growin’  and cryin’,

wet, shitty diaper, blues.

 

I got dem anticipatin’,

gotta be creatin’,

start new relations,

re-educatin’, blues.

 

I got dem groin hair growin’,

hormones a’ roarin’,

loins don’t stop achin, lusty sensations,

datin’, matin’, fornicatin’ blues.

 

I got dem eatin’ meat bodies,

army drilling’, rapin’ and pillagin’,

hamburger grillin’, can’t stop killin’,

don’t let ’em beat you, blues.

 

I got dem “now I’m supposed to”,

“be what I’m told to”,

“don’t be day-dreamin’ “,

“what’s it all meanin’ ?, blues.

 

I got dem go to work steady”,

raise up a family,

do what the boss says,

got to pay taxes”, blues.

 

I got dem “do what the preacher say”,

“wait till next pay day”,

“don’t matter anyway”,

“Be Good ’til Doomsday”, Blues.

 

I got dem can’t out-create,

ain’t safe to say,

family beratin’,

self-abnigatin’, blues.

 

I got dem “too late now”,

pains in my bones,

doctors don’t know,

gonna die soon, blues.

 

I got dem creepy worm eatin’,

don’t recall nothin’,

startin’ all over,

got to get me another meat body, blues.

REPEAT (ad infinitum)

Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi  (2 October 1869 – 30 January 1948) was the preeminent leader of Indian nationalism in British-ruled India. Employing nonviolent civil disobedience, Gandhi led India to independence from economic slavery imposed on India by British Imperialism and inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world, including Martin Luther King, the American Civil Rights Movement and other leaders of non-violent resistance to oppression.
