(原詩)

As the sun rises in the east
As the wind blows
the fog across the sea
As the hand of Man creeps
Across the face of the world
Caught in a web of glamours
Persian perfume and oriental eyes
Yogi in knots and Sufi wise
Master sublime and Swami high
Throw in some Voodoo on the side
And a dash of the old Kung Fu

Lord you got me strung out
On eastern intrigue
Lord you got me strung out
On eastern intrigue

Chapter six and verse eleven
If you wanna get to heaven
You've got to ask the Man
Who owns the Property
Ya gotta dance your dance
And do your act
And get His Big Attention
That's a natural born fact

I'm on my knees, one question please
Will the real God please stand up?
(Will the real God please stand up?)
Will the real God please stand up?
(Will the real God please stand up?)

Jesus and Moses, Mohammed,
And Sri Krishna, Steiner,
Gurdjief, Blavatsky, and Buddha
Guru Maharaji, Reverend Sun Myung Moon

On the banks of the Holy Nile
As the palm tree sways
At the base of the sphinx
'Neath a crescent desert moon
Many thousands younger than ours
In fact, forget about time completely
Think of it in the abstract please
Think of the swaying tropic trees
One of your many destinies
Like having a hot peyote tea
In the palace of Fu Manchu

Lord you got me strung out
On eastern intrigue
Lord you got me strung out
On eastern intrigue

Sell your wife and pawn your heater
Buy the new Bhagavad Gita
Do the Pranayama
'Til your spine gets sore
I'll tell you for free
'Cause God told me
We checked it with the Pope
And so we all agree

I'm on my knees, one question please
Will the real God please sit down?
(Will the real God please sit down?)
Will the real God please sit down?
(Will the real God please sit down?)

Jesus and Moses, Mohammed,
And Sri Krishna, Steiner,
Gurdjief, Blavatsky, and Buddha
Guru Maharaji, Reverend Sun Myung Moon
Will the real God please stand up?
Will the real God please stand up?
Will the real God please stand up?
Will the real God please stand up?
