please don't you rush me
i'm over the moon
I aint yet fit to come down


a rose is a rose
a balloon a balloon

you've got to go right now

go get a job

don't work for your father
he aint no salt of the earth
in your soft little palms

beneath the hollywood palms
you might just do well by some work


hey all you hippies you've got a bad name
ever since you left your guard down


here comes ronald reagan from the hollywood hills
don't look like he's fooling around


now you know how they feel
youre hip to the steel
strutting so bold and lose


you prey to god for luck
but the reconnaisence truck

is watching your every move

you wanted to fish

and to live off the grid
you said life should be easy and free


but just one bad actor
and his benefactors
can bring the old girl to her knees



hey all you hippies you've got a bad name

ever since you left your guard down

here comes ronald reagan from the hollywood hills

don't look like he's fooling around

do these fire work charades

and the low flying planes
stir your patriotic voice to sing


to each flickering flag
on the arlington lawn
for each pawn who has fell for his king



hey all you hippies you've got a bad name

ever since you left your guard down

here comes ronald reagan from the hollywood hills

don't look like he's fooling around

here comes ronald reagan from the hollywood hills

don't look like he's fooling around
