Self Help Guru Songtext
von Legends & Deeds

I first saw you on the cover of a magazine
Standing proud, you were living the American dream
And every time I got depressed
Seemed like all the time I was tempted to call

Next time I saw you on a poster just across the street
You were speaking at my hometown church next week
And then that night, I saw your ad on the late night TV and I decided to call

Cause you′re the self help guru
Touring the American heartland
Filling coliseums all across the US of A

I don't think my life satiates me
I think my children and my wife might hate me
There must be something more
Is there something more


It seemed so far but finally it was Saturday
You wore a suit and with a skipping step you took the stage
You said if I start working hard, I could find success
Just think of all the things that I could buy
My life would turn around
Just think of what a man I′d be
My wife and kids would love me
Thank you self help guru
Touring the American heartland
Filling coliseums all across the US of A

Self help guru
Touring the American heartland
Filling coliseums all across the US of A

Some call it a modern revival
With a video instead of a Bible
I don't think anyone else
Could ease my pain
