I got a bad taste of Saffron I'll be damned to see, tattered threads of a Sannyasi A tainted tone of Saraswati I got a bad taste of Saffron I'll be damned to see, tattered threads of a Sannyasi A tainted tone of Saraswati There are no exceptions to the rule, lest one revoke the vow A curtain closed and a saffron robe fell Many a note I wrote may hope prevail An ancient soul has many unspoken tales I broke the spell of unfettered letters Take my word for what it's worth Into the world for show and tell A word is just a word, but a name is unlike another I go by James, but have claimed, so many others So many sisters, so many brothers And may I do a lot of japa, and may I grow to be like papa But may I realise in this lifetime that Sat-chid-ananda (Ahhh) I got a bad taste of Saffron I'll be damned to see, tattered threads of a Sannyasi A tainted tone of Saraswati I got a bad taste of Saffron I'll be damned to see, tattered threads of a Sannyasi A tainted tone of Saraswati In this Kali Yuga it is make or break, we cannot take a break All we do is take in this Age of Vultures To make a generation great Take the weight of an ape off the shoulders Fake modern day saints taint sacred cultures Like sacred sculptures laced with spray paint Leave a bad taste, a bad trace of odours The persuasive power of aromas Mistaken snakes as sages, saviours as alligators a Lotus flower sinking in a lake of allegations Hari Ram! I see the harm in harmony Look at the ramifications "Truth is one, and paths are many" Adoration and faith carries weight But on this path, hearts are heavy People pray and predators prey on the people Is that the price that you pay? to the Guru And to the Sangha I know you sad But I only ask you be Sadhu Cast aside happy and sad I know you mad, but this I guarantee you can do Emotions just pass through Cry when you feel pain But don't you cry when you laugh too? Tears are just water under the bridge Welcome to Satchidananda Is this bliss attractive I ask you, what is it you attach to? Me, I keep a couple handfuls of cashews Just enough to crack the nut, and debunk the taboo You see attachments can be a hassle And can hang around like a tassel, until they have to be cut Aspirants do what you have to travel gradually up And reach a place that's absolute natural I got a bad taste of Saffron Saffron, saffron, saffron, saffron I got a bad taste of Saffron I'll be damned to see, tattered threads of a Sannyasi A tainted tone of Saraswati I got a bad taste of Saffron I'll be damned to see, tattered threads of a Sannyasi A tainted tone of Saraswati I got a bad taste of Saffron I'll be damned to see, tattered threads of a Sannyasi A tainted tone of Saraswati I got a bad taste of Saffron
