Mount Shrink Wrap

歌詞

I used to sell a lot of things CD's Records Tshirts and Magazines I used to sell a lot of things, patches and sticker So I could buy guitar strings I used to buy a lot of things Cigarettes, and coffee and gasoline It kinda sucks when you're in a band You gotta pollute the air, just to travel across the land It just got me down I just get in the car and drive from town to town I tell people not to drive, but im just a clown Cuz I drive more than anyone Yeah, I just drive around Tell people to eat right and follow their heart. But you know I'm not very smart Cuz I get my dinner at the mini-mart I went to the demonstration to say no war for oil. And the cops sprayed mace in my face We go on tour in the summer, but the van's got a leak. We spray oil all over the place. I went to see Judi Bari talk about saving some redwood trees. And she sang some songs She didn't use no electricity She didn't have to press up no cds She didn't have to make no booklets or sleeves She didn't have to kill nothing to say her peace And it got me to thinking about How maybe I'm just too attached. To people talking about my latest record Selling shit and getting tax free cash And it got me to thinking about How I'mnot really living the life I'm talking about So I gave it up, and I left the city Got a place with a yard and I planted myself a garden I used to sell a lot of things Until I found out how many About 15,000 of each release That's roughly one mountain of shrink wrap I used to buy a lot of things But you know I'll just sit and watch my garden grow And when the summer time comes I'll just eat from my garden and live like a bum I'm gonna put some roots down And I'm gonna grow
