Occupy Oakland (Wear Some Flowers In Your Hair)

Audio within a day or three. First draft:

If you’re going to Occupy Oakland
Be sure to take a stun gun with you there
If you’re going to Occupy Oakland
You’re gonna meet some scary people there

For those who come to Occupy Oakland
Bummertime, a whacked-out hate-in there
Near the tents of Occupy Oakland
Homeless people with insects in their hair

All across the nation such a strange vibration
Threatening reporters
There’s a whole generation with no explanation
Aimless motion, aimless motion

For those who come to Occupy Oakland
Be sure to wear body armor there
If you come to Occupy Oakland
We gave up, let’s have a hate-in there

If you come to Occupy Oakland
Bummertime, a whacked-out hate-in there
