lyrics

Woke up this morning from an incredible dream
Played some Bob Dylan, read some Kerouac
Jumped in my Volvo and smoked some cloves
Went down to the coffee shop for an hour or two
Got some vegetarian take-out and went back home

Groovy...

Kicked back and read the Mother Earth News
I can change the world if they can groove to my views
Fed my vegetarian dog. His name is Jerry Garcia
Put on some Indigo Girls and popped open a Zima

And all my girlfriend's causes become bumper-stickers
Take care of your brothers and your sisters
I want to be a lesbian folk rocker
'Cause men are pigs...
And Mean People Suck

We've got an open-minded, bongo
hackey-sack hemp community
Recycle freedom, all-natural poetry
I've got a world vision, but I don't know what to say
I'd better get crackin', only six weeks 'til Earth Day

And all my girlfriend's causes become bumper-stickers
Take care of your brothers and your sisters
I want to be a lesbian folk rocker
Peace Joy and Love...
And Mean People Suck

And all my girlfriend's causes become bumper-stickers
Take care of your Mother. Protect your sisters
I want to be a well-read lesbian folk singer
God is a woman...
(and oh yeah) Mean People Suck
