OK I can't believe i'm actually making a serious comment on a song called "who's got the crack," but I wanted to comment on the line
"I wanna be a hippie
But I forgot how to love"
I think they are saying that back in the 60's hippies thought they were going to change the world and they used a lot of drugs because they thought an altered state of conciousness would actually help them to acheive their goals. Nowdays, the recklesness and freedom of being a hippie has stayed, but everyone has fogotten the ideals that they stood for, and its just sort of an iconized fashion statement.
