High up in the Himalayan mountain peaks / their lived
a beautiful goddess named Parvati / Parvati was the
wife of the god named Shiva / the king of all yogi's
who destroys all demons / now Shiva loved to practice
yoga deep in the forest / away from the world and all
the things that lure us / often meditating for weeks
and months / practicing detachment completely untouched
/ but whenever Shiva left,
Parvati stayed home / often feeling sad and all alone
/ so one day she prayed and made a wish / for a son
who she could have fun and play with / the very next
morning to her surprise / a little baby laid right
in front of her eyes / Parvati could hardly control
her joy / for the gods had blessed her with a beautiful boy /

chorus
Son of Shiva & Parvati, with an elephants head and a fat belly

One day when Parvati was taking a bath / she instructed
her son to protect the path / so he stood in the door
just like a guard / there to make sure no one entered
the yard / it was at that time when Shiva returned
/ not knowing that his wife recently gave birth / when
he saw the boy he told him to move / not knowing who
his father was the boy refused / now Shiva's like this,
truth consciousness and bliss / but he's crazy when
he's angry so don't get him pissed / feeling dissed
by the boy Shiva started a rumble / an epic struggle
that shook the jungle / / then out of nowhere Shiva's
trident went chop / and that's when the boy's head
was cut off / / when Parvati heard the noise coming
from outside / she rushed to find that her boy had died /

chorus
Son of Shiva & Parvati, with an elephants head and a fat belly

All the gods quickly rushed to the scene / as soon
as they heard Parvati's scream / she turned toward
her Shiva with tears in her eyes / and painfully explained
how the boy was there child / when Shiva realized the
size of this mess / he became stressed upset and depressed
/ that's when the god Vishnu came up with a plan /
to find another head so the boy could live again /
Shiva said we'll take the first head that we find /
but we really need to hurry cuz we're running out of
time / deep in the jungle the gods met an elephant
/ a wise old being who attained enlightenment / he
offered his life so the gods took his head / and quickly
returned to where the boy laid dead / they placed it
upon the boys body / and at first it looked funny and
even ungodly / but Parvati said the head fit just like
a glove / truly a face only a mother could love / when
Shiva saw the boy becoming refreshed / he embraced
his son and named him Ganesh /

chorus
Son of Shiva & Parvati, with an elephants head and a fat belly
