hippie-ocracy
hippie-ocracy
taking the place of democracy
tired old hippies working their magic
they’re so hip it’s almost tragic

tree huggers once upon a time
age makes you careful with a dime
join a cult and save a buck
take out a forest, who gives a f…!


all together now:
hippie-ocracy, hippie-ocracy…good bye democracy
cheap, cranky ol’ hippies having their say
nah nah nah nah… nah nah nah nah… hey hey…

“okay, we’re here, we so pwnd this place
breeders, get your kids outta my face
if you’ve got chickens and a cock too
I won’t tolerate that crowing cock-a-doodle-do”

“animal control, police, come quick
this farm life noise is making me sick
carbon footprint, local food, paths in the woods
take that cock away or I’ll sue yo’ ass good”

“we’ve got connections on the B_O_A
how do you think we got our say
creating pacifica, our hippie enclave,
town officials work for us, they’re our slaves”


“the new carrboro: let’s keep it this way
a place where old hippies have the only say
usufructing, breeder bashing, intolerance on parade
we’re the ones dispensing the tasty kool-aid”


all together now:
hippie-ocracy, hippie-ocracy…good bye democracy
cheap, cranky ol’ hippies having their say
nah nah nah nah… nah nah nah nah… hey hey…

“drugs, sex and alcohol used be our trip
now we’re tired, old and need a new hip
we’ve always been spoiled and had our way
now politics is where we play”

“hippie-ocracy, hippie-ocracy is here to stay
using other people’s money to brighten our day
mom and dad once held the strings
now taxpayers pay for our things”


all together now:
hippie-ocracy, hippie-ocracy…good bye democracy
cheap, cranky ol’ hippies having their say
nah nah nah nah… nah nah nah nah… hey hey…
