Verse 1
F
On the We're Only In It For The Money album,
Am
F
you took a lot of swipes
at hippies.
G#m
You really showed a
E
disdain
A
for their behavior.
E#
E
What was wrong, what was
G#m
or what is wrong
F
E
F
with the hippies, basically, do think?
E
Em
G
Well, I think that the main
E
thing that I objected to at the time
F#
was everybody was so ready to
E#
accept Haight -Ashbury
and the whole San Francisco
E
hippie scene
as the what's happening of the universe
F
Eb
and flower power
F
and all the rest of that stuff,
Eb
which I did not think was really
what was happening
F
or what should happen.
And I didn't think
that the people who were in
E
volved in it believed it.
Eb
E
And if they did believe it,
E#
they were still hurting
E
because that's,
E#
it was puny and it was, you know.
What came through Frank was it
you know you almost coined
the term
E#
or if you didn't kind of turn
plastic people
and you know I think
E
people dates from before
Eb
They were only it for the money album. Yeah,
G
okay
F
You the hippies seemed
Your attitude on that
album seem to be
that the hippies were just as plastic
as one -dimensional.
G
They were following they
were hurting
F
They hippies are probably just a
hairier version of their parents
in most of those cases
E
because the minds that were lurking
behind all that hair and beads
and the rest of the
Eb
San Francisco scene
F
Eb
weren't truly liberated at all.
E
You know, they're really,
they're just like Shriners. Yeah.
F
E
You know, it was the same sort
of thing happening,
but they couldn't see it, you know, because they felt, well,
F
we look different than those other people,
so I guess we are different. Yeah.
