A Buddhist approaches a hotdog vendor and says: "Make me one with everything."

He gives the vendor a $20 bill and waits. Finally he says: "Where's my change?"

Says the vendor: "Change comes from within."

Talking Heads - Once In A Lifetime

And you may find yourself: living in a shotgun shack.
And you may find yourself: in another part of the world.
And you may find yourself: behind the wheel of a large automobile.
And you may find yourself: in a beautiful house... with a beautiful wife.
And you may ask yourself: "Well, how did I get here?"

Letting the days go by -- let the water hold me down...
Letting the days go by -- water flowing underground...
Into the blue again -- after the money's gone...
Once in a lifetime -- water flowing underground.

And you may ask yourself: "How do I work this?"
And you may ask yourself: "Where is that large automobile?"
And you may tell yourself: "This is not my beautiful house."
And you may tell yourself: "This is not my beautiful wife!"

Letting the days go by -- let the water hold me down...
Letting the days go by -- water flowing underground...
Into the blue again -- after the money's gone...
Once in a lifetime -- water flowing underground.

Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...

Letting the days go by -- let the water hold me down...
Letting the days go by -- water flowing underground...
Into the blue again -- after the money's gone...
Once in a lifetime -- water flowing underground.

And you may ask yourself: "What is that beautiful house?"
And you may ask yourself: "Where does that highway go to?"
And you may ask yourself: "Am I right? Am I wrong?"
And you may say to yourself: "My god! What have I done!?"

Letting the days go by -- let the water hold me down...
Letting the days go by -- water flowing underground...
Into the blue again -- into the silent water...
Under the rocks and stones -- there is water underground. 

Letting the days go by -- let the water hold me down...
Letting the days go by -- water flowing underground...
Into the blue again -- after the money's gone...
Once in a lifetime -- water flowing underground.

Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...
Hey look where my hand was!
Time isn't holding up.
Time isn't after us.
Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was... (Letting the days go by...)
Same as it ever was... (Letting the days go by...)
Same as it ever was... (Letting the days go by...)
Once in a lifetime...
