Kalifornia Kiddies - Donovan

They grew right through the whole damned thing\n>From the beatnik beginning\nPissed and Pilled and Puffed and Pricked\nDown the highway of oblivion\nAs we dug the Rockin’Insects and\nMoved to Mama-Mandrex\nThey saw right through our acid eyes\nAnd released bonds of shame-sex\nThose Kalifornia Kiddies shinning in the sun\nThose Kalifornia Kiddies love 'em every one\nThey felt our hippie happy days\nThey felt our deepest sorrow\nThey learned how to embrace the past\nAnd the great Unknown Tomorrow\nThey’ll soon put down this rock\nThat down the bog soon courses\nDaft Decadence and nazi groups\nFoul and hostile forces\nThose Kalifornia Kiddies shinning in the sun\nThose Kalifornia Kiddies love 'em every one\nThey listened to the sky with you\nThey heard the bell of peace ring\nThe message in the flower\nThe symbol of awakening\nThey saw you give up meats and sweets\nAnd practice control passion\nAnd all this done stoned, on the run\nAnd through the Veil went crashing\nThey saw you gain a mantra\n>From the Master of the Wild Mind\nFelt you feel way deep inside\nBehind the Veil of Maya\nInstinctively they opened up Their spirit — eyes of Wisdom\nTheir Fairy Tale will never pale\nThey dance in Love’s bright freedom
