I can't believe how many women relate to this song. The funny thing is that the Zen Boyfriend type would be horrified to discover that they are in fact a "type" Your secret's out fellas!
Zen Boyfriend

Look into my eyes
Can't you see that I am serious
Take me by the hand
And I'll show you the way
I'm the only one who knows
The path to true enlightenment
Of course you won't mind
If I go astray

Zen boyfriend so proud of
Your lack of conceit
The girls come in droves and
They land at your feet
No need to spend money like those other guys
You can dispose of those pretty white lies
Zen boyfriend, Zen boyfriend
The Buddha's on your side

I am so unique
An artist and a poet
I've written things down
And I'm willing to show you
Just come into my room
And take a seat upon my mattress
We can light a candle and
Do what comes natural

Zen boyfriend they told me
You're not what you seem
You tell a good story but
In the end it's all a dream
No repercussions though your figured-out
Now more then ever there is no doubt
Zen boyfriend, Zen boyfriend
The Buddha's on your side

Zen boyfriend I suggest you meditate
Your good Karma's running out now
Quick before it's too late
No need to worry as to what is your fate
If you'd be yourself you could still get a date
Cause Zen boyfriend
The Buddha's on your side
