The story of a Buddhist who has but two loves in his life: Birds and Voodoo.
There lies a little grove, which is the setting of my birth
Now I was a small bit out of place in my little town
And was the only starving boy with not-so-starving girth
I'll admit that I was round and did not know my worth
My mother was a farmer with devotion to her spouse
My father loved her back a little less than in her blouse
They had me quite by accident, of this I do not care
I could not see too much of them, for they worked out the house
There I would observe and stare at all the birds and grouse
For all my love of life above, I simply must indulge
I was to join the Temple, to my parents I divulged
I was growing weary of the simple old routine
I had to make escape from mothers pick and fathers bulge
Across the plains I marched, to liberation there I trudged
Buddha is my life, they tell me, Buddha is my best
Buddha, to myself, can suck my nine down from my chest
I read some books on voodoo, so now the birds I can control
I set them on the monks, those little freaks can taste some crest
Let us put this new found power to a little test

A Black Magic Buddhist
In the plains of Chinese soil, on the green and brown of EarthThere lies a little grove, which is the setting of my birth
Now I was a small bit out of place in my little town
And was the only starving boy with not-so-starving girth
I'll admit that I was round and did not know my worth
My mother was a farmer with devotion to her spouse
My father loved her back a little less than in her blouse
They had me quite by accident, of this I do not care
I could not see too much of them, for they worked out the house
There I would observe and stare at all the birds and grouse
For all my love of life above, I simply must indulge
I was to join the Temple, to my parents I divulged
I was growing weary of the simple old routine
I had to make escape from mothers pick and fathers bulge
Across the plains I marched, to liberation there I trudged
Buddha is my life, they tell me, Buddha is my best
Buddha, to myself, can suck my nine down from my chest
I read some books on voodoo, so now the birds I can control
I set them on the monks, those little freaks can taste some crest
Let us put this new found power to a little test
