They said Mama Cass was fat,
And Karen Carpender took ipecac
To make herself throw up so she'd stay thin.
A hateful pack of fraternity brats
Voted Janis Joplin the University of Texas' ugliest man in 1962.
But ask not what you can do for your women,
But please, what can women do for you?
This world still kills the prophets.
Marley, Hendrix, Mercury,
Hate and jealousy in the face of love,
In the face of true,
Gary Coleman, Kurt Cobain,
Any Winehouse, Marilyn,
George Michael, Marvin Gaye,
Prince, Judy Garland,
All died in pain.
No one truly understood.
No one knew how to help or what to do,
But let's not ask what you can do for your people,
But only what people can do for you.
