It ain't no joke I'd like to buy the world a toke and teach the world to
sing in perfect harmony and teach the world to snuff the fires and the
liers hey I know it's just a song but it's the spice for recipe I know this
love attack I know it went out but it's back it's just like any fad it
retracts before impact and just like fashion it's a passion for the with it
and the hip if ya' got the goods they'll come and buy it just to stay in
the cliqe
CHORUS-
So don't delay act now supplies are running out allow, if you're still
alive, six to eight years to arrive and if you follow there maybe tomorrow
but if the offer is shun you might as well be walkin' on the sun
Twenty-five years age they broke out and they spoke out of depression and
oppression and together they toked and they folked out on guitars around a
bon fire just a singin' and a clappin' man what the hell happened? Some
were spell bound some were hell bound some they fell down and some got back
up and fought back against the melt down and their kids are hippie chicks
are hypocrites because fashion is smashin' the true meaning of it
CHORUS-
It ain't no joke when mama's hankercheif is soaked with her tears because
her babys life has been revoked the bond is broke up so choke up and focus
on the close up Mr. Wizard can't perform no God like hocus pocus so don't
just sit back kick back and watch the world get bush wacked new at ten your
neighborhood is under attack put away the crack before the crack put you
away you need to be there when your baby is old enough to relate
CHORUS-

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official SMASH MOUTH tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
