I really like the idea of karma. It is like a barter and trade system of economics. Over the course of time everything works out favorably, provided you are skilled at bartering and trading. I try to be a good karma barterer, and I think overall I come out ahead. But am I looking at everything exactly as karma would? Karma may have a different view of who I really am in the complicated world of Karma-onomics. Am I as good as I really think I am? Who am I kidding...I must be at least halfway evil. This is the idea with Karma Knows.
If I received a private jet
I'd probably sell it
If I won a car on a game show
I'd be a fool not to get a tow
If I hit the lottery
I'd help a charity
If I found a loaded wallet
I'd be sound and return all of it
Pop, My thought bubble burst
From the pressure of my self-propelled thirst
The bubble rubble stains my clothes
Who am I?
Only my karma knows
If I'm asked for advice
I'll aver without a price
If I'm requested for useful duties
I'll acquiesce without useless queries
If I'm overseeing nectarines
I'll not call them tangerines
If I'm unlike the rest of the guys
I'll try not to wear a disguise
Pop, My thought bubble burst
From the pressure of my self-reactive thirst
The bubble rubble stains my clothes
Who am I?
Only my karma knows
Is this me? No, man. X 3
Is this really me?
Yeah...
Pop, My thought bubble burst
From the pressure of my selfish thirst
The bubble rubble stains my clothes

If I hit the lottery
I'd help a charity

I am not satisfied with a few words in this song...mainly the word overseeing. I always think picking or gathering is better...but i stick with overseeing because of the whole image of overseeing fruit for me is interesting. Also, bubble rubble seems a little different in atmosphere than the rest of the song, but I just like those two words together so I haven't changed it yet. I would welcome anyone else's opinion! Cheers, and good karma to ya!
