Spek - I'm A Hippie Lyrics

Chorus:
I'm a hippie, but I got a tattoo,
I'm a rasta, but I got short hair

I'm a business man, but I love to smoke joints
I'm a teacher, who never gets to the point
Like a racer who never drives too fast
I need a pacemaker, that's built to last
Like bohemians, that's all I am,
I might change you (forever man)

Verse 1:
Well I don't read news, don't read words
When it tells me what I just heard,
I just move with the grace of God,
Try not to feel how it leaves me scarred,
I'm not into the road that broke,
Finding out about the gun smoke
I've got my own little plan,
To get me heard onto another platform,
Against the norm,
And I remember what I'd tell 'em in the dorm

Chorus 2:
I'm a hippie, but I got a tattoo,
I'm a rasta, but I got short hair,
I'm a business man, but I love to smoke joints
I'm a teacher, who never gets to the point,
Like a racer who never drives too fast,
I need a pacemaker, that's built to last
Like bohemians, that's all I am,
I might change you (forever man)


Verse 2:
Well I live for my visions everyday,
To pat me on the back and just say,
Everything's gonna be ok,
No need to stress, no need to worry,
And I won't think about the times that were,
I'll just hope that they're all a blur,
And I can't stop me being me,
But the changes come and the changes must be,
And ironic isn't it,
They tell the story I'm living it,
But you know its got to be told,
Don't wanna live inside a pigeon hole

Chorus 3:
I'm a hippie, but I got a tattoo,
I'm a rasta, but I got short hair,
I'm a business man, but I love to smoke joints
I'm a teacher, who never gets to the point,
Like a racer who never drives too fast,
I need a pacemaker, that's built to last.
Like bohemians, that's all I am,
I might change you (forever man)

Mid 8

Chorus 4 & 5:
I'm a hippie, but I got a tattoo,
I'm a rasta, but I got short hair,
I'm a business man, but I love to smoke joints
I'm a teacher, who never gets to the point,
Like a racer who never drives too fast,
I need a pacemaker, that's built to last
Like bohemians, that's all I am,
I might change you (forever man)

I'm a hippie, but I got a tattoo,
I'm a rasta, but I got short hair,
I'm a business man, but I love to smoke joints
I'm a teacher, who never gets to the point,
Like a racer who never drives too fast,
I need a pacemaker, that's built to last.
Like bohemians, that's all I am,
I might change you (forever man)
