JBU Mock Rock 2010: Last Resort (Colors of the Wind...sort of...)

John Brown University Mock Rock - Nov 20th, 2010

Students perform an original lyric set to the tune of "Colors of the Wind" from Disney's Pocahontas.

1st place

Lyrics:
You think the only people who are people Are the people who look and think like you But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger You'll learn things you never knew you never knew

You think our way of life is somewhat dirty You think we like our clothes to be unclean But I can pray to Jesus just like you do And the Bible says he looks much more like me

(Chorus)
Have you ever tye-dyed t-shirts on the quad all day Have you ever felt the green grass under your feet Have you ever hung a nalgene from your backpack Did they make you put on shoes so you could eat

Grab your camera and guitar and follow me now And sing so loud till you can sing no more Roll your jeans up to your knees and go barefoot Thats the only way that you can be hardcore

Come and try your balance on a slack line Skip a class and set down all your books But don't forget to bring a pair of Chacos Cause the sidewalks so much hotter than it looks Oh the sidewalks so much hotter than it looks

Live Life so rugged and free
Mr. Whitmore, play a song for me

(Chorus)
Have you ever tye-dyed t-shirts on the quad all day Have you ever felt the green grass under your feet Have you ever hung a nalgene from your backpack Did they make you put on shoes so you could eat

Come and live this life with me
Choose granola and be free

But they still make you put shoes on
Just to eat

(Thanks to Chris E. for the lyrics. He gets cookies.)
