Am D9
It ain\'t no joke I\'d like to buy the world a toke
Am D9
And teach the world to sing in perfect harmony
Am D9
And teach the world to snuff the fires and the liars
Am D9
Hey I know it\'s just a song but it\'s spice for the recipe
Am D6 Am D6
This is a love attack I know it went out but it\'s back
Am D6 Am D6
It\'s just like any fad retracts before impact
Em D
And it\'s just like fashion it\'s a passion for the with it and hip
If ya got the goods they\'ll come and buy it just to stay in
The clique
(CHORUS):
Am D9 G D9 Am
So don\'t delay act now suplies are running out
Am D9 Am D Am
Allow, if you\'re still alive, six to eight years to arrive
Am D9 G D9
And if you follow there may be a tomorrow
Am D9 D Am
But if the offer is shun you might as well be walking on the sun
Twenty five years ago the spoke out and they broke out
Of depression and opression and together they toked
And they folked out with guitars around a bon fire
Just singin\' and 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 \'gainst the melt down
And their kids are hippie chicks and hypocrites
Because fashion is smashin\' the true meaning of it
(CHORUS)
It ain\'t no joke when mama\'s handkerchief is soaked
With her tears because her baby\'s like has been revoked
The bond is broke up so choke up and focus on the close up
Mr. Wizzard can\'t perform no god like hocus pocus
So don\'t sit back and watch the world get bushwacked
News at 10:00 your neighborhood is under attack
Put away the crak before the crak puts you away
You need to be there when your babies are old enough to relate
POST-CHORUS PART A:

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.
