Lyrics

[Verse 1]

That ain't no joke, I'd like to buy the world a toke

And teach the world to sing in perfect harmony

And teach the world to snuff the fires and the liars

Hey, I know it's just a song, but it's spice for the recipe

[Verse 2]

This is a love attack, I know it went out, but it's back

It's just like any fad, it retracts before impact

And just like fashion it's a passion

For the with-it and hip

If you got the goods they'll come and buy it

Just to stay in the clique

[Verse 3]

So don't delay, act now, supplies are runnin' out

Allow if you're still alive, six to eight years to arrive

And if you follow, there may be a tomorrow

But if the offer's shunned

You might as well be walkin' on the sun

[Verse 4]

Twenty-five years ago they broke out and they spoke out

Recession and oppression, together they toked

And they folked out with guitars around a bonfire

Just singin' and clappin', man, what the hell happened?

[Verse 5]

Then some are spellbound, some were Hell-bound

Some, they fell down and some got back up and

Fought back against the melt down

And their kids were hippie chicks, all hypocrites

Because fashion is smashin' the true meaning of it

[Verse 6]

So don't delay, act now, supplies are runnin' out

Allow, if you're still alive, six to eight years to arrive

And if you follow, there may be a tomorrow

But if the other's shunned

You might as well be walkin' on the sun

[Verse 7]

It ain't no joke when a mama's handkerchief is soaked

With her tears because her baby's life as been revoked

The bond is broke up, so choke up and focus on the close up

Mr. Wizard can't perform no godlike hocus-pocus

So don't sit back, kick back and watch the world get bushwhacked

News at 10, your neighborhood is under attack

Put away the crack before the crack puts you away

You need to be there when your baby's old enough to relate

[Verse 8]

So don't delay, act now, supplies are runnin' out

Allow, if you're still alive, six to eight years to arrive

And if you follow, there may be a tomorrow

But if the offer's shunned

You might as well be walkin' on the sun

[Verse 9]

You might as well be walkin' on the sun

You might as well be walkin' on the sun

You might as well be walkin' on the sun

You might as well be walkin' on the sun
