[01:19.350]Just singing and clapping, man, what the hell happened?
[01:22.920]Then some were spellbound some were hell- bound
[01:25.950]Some they fell down and some got back up and
[01:28.860]Fought back against the melt down
[01:30.690]And their kids were hippie chicks, all hypocrites
[01:34.140]Because fashion is smashing the true meaning of it
