If 6 Was 9
If the sun refused to shine
I don't mind, I don't mind
(Yeah)
If the mountains fell in the sea
Let it be, it ain't me (alright)
Got my own world to look through, and I, huh
And I ain't gonna copy you, yeah
Now, if a six, huh, turned out to be nine
Oh, I don't mind, oh, I don't mind
If all the hippies cut off all their hair
Oh, I don't care, oh, I don't care
Did, 'cause I got my own world to live through
And I ain't gonna copy you
White-collar conservatives flashing down the street
Pointing their plastic finger at me, huh
They're hoping soon my kind will drop and die
But I'm, I'm gonna wave my freak flag high, high, ow!
Wave on, wave on
Falling mountains just don't fall on me
Point on, mister businessman
You can't dress like me
Nobody know what I'm talking about
I've got my own life to live
I'm the one that's gonna have to die
When it's time for me to die
So, let me live my life the way I want to
Yeah
Sing on, brother
Play on too
I don't mind, I don't mind
(Yeah)
If the mountains fell in the sea
Let it be, it ain't me (alright)
Got my own world to look through, and I, huh
And I ain't gonna copy you, yeah
Now, if a six, huh, turned out to be nine
Oh, I don't mind, oh, I don't mind
If all the hippies cut off all their hair
Oh, I don't care, oh, I don't care
Did, 'cause I got my own world to live through
And I ain't gonna copy you
White-collar conservatives flashing down the street
Pointing their plastic finger at me, huh
They're hoping soon my kind will drop and die
But I'm, I'm gonna wave my freak flag high, high, ow!
Wave on, wave on
Falling mountains just don't fall on me
Point on, mister businessman
You can't dress like me
Nobody know what I'm talking about
I've got my own life to live
I'm the one that's gonna have to die
When it's time for me to die
So, let me live my life the way I want to
Yeah
Sing on, brother
Play on too
