Lyrics for The Plastic Guru (feat. Johnny Marr and Anoushka Shankar)

(spoken) Now are you picking this up? Great (spoken) I am very open (spoken) No I'm not, I'm not implicating you (spoken) Have fun (spoken) Thanks I thought I was alone But you know what I'm thinking You've been here before You were tied to the demon Starring in you own show and selling your snake oil We believe what we choose Is that not the truth I looked into the eyes of the plastic guru Who lived on the mountain He was tied to the demon Burning in the silence before the applause (spoken) Okay We believe what we choose Is that not the truth We believe what we choose Is that not the truth We believe what we choose Is that not the truth We believe what we choose (spoken) Is that not the truth (spoken) Okay, so stop
