Gun sales are soaring, housewives find life boring
Divorce the only answer smoking causes cancer
This system's gonna fall soon, to an angry young tune
And that's a concrete cold fact

Grabbed my picket sign, protest buttons, leaflets, and ran out into the streets. Cop clubbed me on the head, arrested me and threw me in the paddy wagon. Flipped 'em a peace sign and he gave me the finger. Lord, I got's da anti-establishment, empty-pocket, nuthin' ta git high on, hippie blues.
