Count Raven Hippies Triumph
Peace & love & understanding, was the cry of the mid sixties Visions in acid showed the way, we smiled at one another Colours of the rainbow filled my head, and I loved a beautiful princess We lived for a better day & for a world where we loved aech other The freaks they really showed the way, Gods children of the new tomorrow Fight for a new society, or You will die in sorrow This is a hippies thriumph, and at the same time He fears the mistake of all youth One mistake we made and so do You All youth think they live forever Life is short & runs away from You, and You have no time to hate your neighbour Think of yourself all the way, was the cry of the eighties Corrupted minds ruled a whole decade, let's hope it turns in the nineties This is your father speaking and as every parent I'll fear for my youth So sick & tired, of hearing same cry The youth they don't understand us, they don't hear what we say The younger says that they don't listen, but You don't give them a chance to try Use communication, on this I pray Looking at the world today, no one loves each other Hate instead of love we want they say, from the cup of madness You are drinking Spitting in the face of love, then you spit in the face of creation If You want a better world today, then face it now & start thinking This is a hippies thriumph, and at the same time He fears the mistake of all youth
