Caught up in the cycle
Of birth and death
I'll be seeking Nirvana
When I leave this earth
Been waiting for Jesus
To come from the sky
Take me in his Rapture
I'll be saying bye-bye

I'll be with the Prophet
And my forty-four virgins
Enhance my sex life
For eternity
Singing Hare Krishna
Playing my sitar
Me and George Harrison
Me and Ravi Shankar

But the truth is when
We're dead we're dead
There's no afterlife
Of any friggin' kind
There's no afterlife
For the atheist type
No afterlife for
The Scientific Mind

I'd like nothing better
Than to see my parents
In some heavenly place
Where I await my son
But it won't happen
Cos nothing's divine
There's no faith in
The Scientific Mind
