Lyrics
IF THE SUN REFUSE TO SHINE
I DON`T MIND, I DON`T MIND
IF THE MOUNTAINS FELL IN THE SEA
LET IT BE, IT AIN`T ME
GOT MY OWN WORLD TO LOOK THROUGH
AND I, AND I AIN`T GONNA COPY YOU
NOW IF A 6 TURNED OUT TO BE 9
I DON`T MIND, I DON`T MIND
ALRIGHT, IF ALL THE HIPPIES CUT OFF ALL THEIR HAIR
I DON`T CARE, I DON`T CARE
DIG `CAUSE I GOT MY OWN WORLD TO LIVE THROUGH
AND I AIN`T GONNA COPY YOU
WHITE COLLARED CONSERVATIVE FLASHING DOWN THE STREET
POINTING THEIR PLASTIC FINGER AT ME
THEY`RE HOPING SOON MY KIND WILL DROP AND DIE
BUT I`M GONNA WAVE MY FREAK FLAG HIGH, HIGH! WHOA!
WAVE ON, WAVE ON
HA HA
FALL MOUNTAINS JUST DON`T FALL ON ME
GO AHEAD ON MR. BUSINESS MAN YOU CAN`T DRESS LIKE ME
I GOT MY OWN LIFE TO LIVE
I`M THE ONE THAT`S GOING TO DIE WHEN IT`S TIME FOR ME TO DIE
SO LET ME LIVE MY LIFE
THE WAY I WANT TO
THERE...
SING ON BROTHER
PLAY ON DRUMMER
