I'm a pompadour hippie with a lot on my mind
And the way things are going make me mad from time to time

Just like a singing bird I'm singing my songs
And I preach the word of love wherever I may roam

I don't need to tell you what's wrong or right
But I can't ignore what's bugging me and just step aside

I don't take advantage of the role that I play
Do you get what I'm saying? We can't just walk away

So, please stop the: hatred, violence, pollution, corruption, destruction, ignorance, conquer and divide
And stop the racism bullshit, cutting of the forests, the nuclear rubbish, the greed and the hunger, the chemical warfare And stop messing with our minds, stop messing with our mind

I'm a Pompadour Hippie and I won't step aside
No, I won't stop believing
No, I won't stop believing
No, I won't stop believing, we'll change in time

I'm a Pompadour Hippie and I won't step aside
No, I won't stop believing
No, I won't stop believing
No, I won't stop believing, we'll change in time

So, please stop the: hatred, violence, pollution, corruption, destruction, ignorance, conquer and divide
And stop the racism bullshit, cutting of the forests, the nuclear rubbish, the greed and the hunger, the chemical warfare And stop messing with our minds, stop messing with our mind

I'm a Pompadour Hippie and I won't step aside
No, I won't stop believing
No, I won't stop believing
No, I won't stop believing, we'll change in time

I'm a Pompadour Hippie and I won't step aside
No, I won't stop believing
No, I won't stop believing
No, I won't stop believing, we'll change in time
