Inspired by the title of a post on the blog Triumph of the Spirit.
Lyrics
Confucius he no say
'Sit on the couch and pray'
There's nowhere in the Bible that it's said
So if you want enlightenment
Get off the couch and find it
If you're not looking for Him
He won't find you.
You won't find enlightenment
As a couch potato...
That's one of the things a couch'll never do
If you want enlightenment
Get off your hump and find it
It sure as heck won't find you
There's nothing wholly special
About a bag of pretzels
Sour cream and chive dip just won't do
He'd rather you spent your time
Eating bread and wine
And loving your neighbour like you're supposed to do.
you won't find enlightenment
as a couch potato...
That's one of the things a couch'll never do
If you want enlightenment
Get off your hump and find it
It sure as heck won't find you
