Song | The Pointless, Yet Poignant, Crisis Of A Co-Ed |
Artist | Dar Williams |
Album | Mortal City |
作词 : Williams | |
I'm not a leader, i'm not a left-wing rhetoric mobilizing force of one, | |
But there was a time way back, many years ago in college, don't laugh, | |
But I thought I was a radical, I ran the hemp Liberation Group with my boyfriend, | |
It was true love, with a common cause, and besides that, he was a Sagittarius. | |
We used to say that our love was like hemp rope, three times as strong as the rope that | |
you buy domestically, | |
And we would bond in the face of oppression from big business and the deans, | |
But I knew there was a problem, every time the group would meet everyone would light up, | |
That made it difficult to discuss glaucoma and human rights, not to mention chemotherapy. | |
Well sometimes, life gives us lessons sent in ridiculous packaging, | |
And so I found him in the arms of a Student Against the Treacherous use of Fur, | |
And he gave no apology, he just turned to me, stoned out to the edge of oblivion, | |
He didn't pull up the sheets and I think he even smiled as he said to me, | |
'Well, I guess our dreams went up in smoke.' | |
And I said, No, our dreams went up in dreams, you stupid pothead, | |
And another thing, what kind of a name is Students Against the Treacherous Use of Fur? | |
Fur is already dead, and besides, a name like that doesn't make a good acronym. | |
I am older now, I know the rise and gradual fall of a daily victory. | |
And I still write to my senators, saying they should legalize cannabis, | |
And I should know, cause I am a horticulturist, I have a husband and two children out in | |
Lexington, Mass. | |
And my ex-boyfriend can't tell me I've sold out, because he's in a cult. | |
And he's not allowed to talk to me. |
