Birds sing there's not a cloud in the sky August 8th is a beautiful day
I see a bunch of hippies crying yeah August 8th is a beautiful day
Like waking up from a real bad dream suddenly everything is OK
The storm has passed the sun is shining yeah August 8th is a beautiful day
What's going on what's going on is something bumming your scene
There's something wrong there's something wrong I'm not trying to be mean
The air is sweet the summer flowers blooming nowhere in sight is there anything grey
Feelings of joy are filling the street yeah beautiful day
Like waking up from a fucked up dream suddenly everything's looking good
There's been no permanent damage done
Yeah August 8th came right when it should
Poor Jeff
Poor little
Timmy Turtle
Staying home on
Such a beautiful
Day
I see a bunch of hippies crying yeah August 8th is a beautiful day
Like waking up from a real bad dream suddenly everything is OK
The storm has passed the sun is shining yeah August 8th is a beautiful day
What's going on what's going on is something bumming your scene
There's something wrong there's something wrong I'm not trying to be mean
The air is sweet the summer flowers blooming nowhere in sight is there anything grey
Feelings of joy are filling the street yeah beautiful day
Like waking up from a fucked up dream suddenly everything's looking good
There's been no permanent damage done
Yeah August 8th came right when it should
Poor Jeff
Poor little
Timmy Turtle
Staying home on
Such a beautiful
Day

Ani idea why Fat Mike hates hippies?
Hippies are at the forefront of the counterculture. If you can't see the irony in that statement alone, please don't even bother reading ahead. Hippies are the ones who are openly throwing their practices in the publics face. When guys like you and me know it's better to keep our mouths shut. Hippies are the ones who give drugs a bad face because they are dirty and smelly and don't usually have jobs. Hippies are the ones you see panhandling for change outside of Subway while you're on you 30 minute lunch. Hippies are also those scary, dirty looking white dudes with dreadlocks usually hitch hiking on the freeway. I work for my money and even if I did smoke pot, I wouldn't let everyone in the world know that I do it.
