Mount Shrink Wrap — текст песни (fifteen)

I used to sell a lot of things CD`s Records Tshirts and Magazines
I used to sell a lot of things, patches and sticker
So I could buy guitar strings
I used to buy a lot of things
Cigarettes, and coffee and gasoline
It kinda sucks when you`re in a band
You gotta pollute the air, just to travel across the land
It just got me down
I just get in the car and drive from town to town
I tell people not to drive, but im just a clown
Cuz I drive more than anyone Yeah,
I just drive around
Tell people to eat right and follow their heart.
But you know I`m not very smart
Cuz I get my dinner at the mini-mart
I went to the demonstration to say no war for oil.
And the cops sprayed mace in my face
We go on tour in the summer, but the van`s got a leak.
We spray oil all over the place.
I went to see Judi Bari talk about saving some redwood trees.
And she sang some songs
She didn`t use no electricity
She didn`t have to press up no cds
She didn`t have to make no booklets or sleeves
She didn`t have to kill nothing to say her peace
And it got me to thinking about
How maybe I`m just too attached.
To people talking about my latest record
Selling shit and getting tax free cash
And it got me to thinking about
How I`mnot really living the life I`m talking about
So I gave it up, and I left the city
Got a place with a yard and I planted myself a garden
I used to sell a lot of things
Until I found out how many
About 15,000 of each release
That`s roughly one mountain of shrink wrap
I used to buy a lot of things
But you know I`ll just sit and watch my garden grow
And when the summer time comes
I`ll just eat from my garden and live like a bum
I`m gonna put some roots down
And I`m gonna grow
