Eight weeks with the maharishi,
and a letter from Yoko every day.
Stumblin' down the path to truth,
tellin' lies every step of the way.
It's a hell of a thing to change your life,
and there's always a price to pay.
Jesus liked to walk on the water,
though it made him look a little gay.
He always picked up the tab at dinner,
but they nailed him to a tree anyway.
It's a hell of a thing to change your life,
and there's always a price to pay.
Mimi was afraid of dyin'.
"I've been a wicked woman," she was heard to say.
Repentance in the face of death
is the Cowardly Lion's way.
It's a hell of a thing to change your life,
and there's always a price to pay.
It's a hell of a thing to change your life,
and there's always a price to pay.
Every time I tried to change mine
something got in my way.
Jackson Pollock threw paint at a canvas,
they called it 'Art' with a capital 'A.'
It's hangin' in museums 'cause his restless demons
demanded to have their say.
It's a hell of a thing to change your life,
and there's always a price to pay.
Eight weeks with the maharishi
and a letter from Yoko every day.
George banged the hell out of Ringo's wife,
and Clapton took George's wife away.
It's a hell of a thing to change your life,
but there's always a price to pay.
