No I No Me No Mine? No problem It all makes so much sense In a meditation hall No Music No Mouth No Mindlessness Life’s a breeze At the end of your nose Then you leave And life eases you in gently It’s good to be at home Alive No Lie No Meat No Alcohol No Drugs No Stealing Morality is the new rock’n’roll Equanimity will wake you up And help you sleep Ignorance is no more answer The knowing tugs at you Won’t let you be There are things to do That can’t be un-done And things to be That cannot be done That can only be done by being It won’t go away Every time you look In the opposite direction The mirror gets bigger Until eventually You always see it Even when your eyes are shut I endeavour to shut my eyes more But only so that I can see

No I, no Me, no Mine
No I No Me No Mine? No problem It all makes so much sense In a meditation hall No Music No Mouth No Mindlessness Life’s a breeze At the end of your nose Then you leave And life eases you in gently It’s good to be at home Alive No Lie No Meat No Alcohol No Drugs No Stealing Morality is the new rock’n’roll Equanimity will wake you up And help you sleep Ignorance is no more answer The knowing tugs at you Won’t let you be There are things to do That can’t be un-done And things to be That cannot be done That can only be done by being It won’t go away Every time you look In the opposite direction The mirror gets bigger Until eventually You always see it Even when your eyes are shut I endeavour to shut my eyes more But only so that I can see
