lyrics

420/24/7

It’s time to end the discrimination
Across every worldly, fair and fantastic nation
It’s time to stop the incarceration
End all the needless pain and all of the frustration

420/7 is our ticket to heaven
The herb loves you better than the legal oppression
420/7 is my ticket to heaven
The herb takes away all my sixes and sevens

It’s time to end the tyranny – it’s time, about time
Good people shouldn’t have to
Live their lives in fear
Not talking criminals or bad – it’s time, about time
But they’re still doing hard time
I’d just like to add.

While you sip on your chardonnay
Taking in another sunny day
Spare a thought for those who dwell
In all the prison cells
Not criminals, not bad
But they’re doing hard time I’d like to add
Maltreated, ridiculed by the bullies of the world
Always punchin’ down on the meek, on the weak
Don’t need violence we’ve moved on from there

No more black and white, spot-light
Scare the kids in the night
No shame, no blame
People’s lives are not a game
420 if you will
Let the people have their will
Let them have their fill
It’s not bad, it’s not wrong
It’s less harmful so what’s wrong?
There’s no violence it’s naturally ordained
For us to use

Let’s all sit down and share a pipe
Bring the city to the pipe
Bring your friends along
Bring business, bring politics
Bring medicine along
I don’t want to go to jail
But you can’t stop me I will inhale
Like Clinton, Obama, Bush and Tenacious D
Cheech and Chong and Snoop Lion
And all the Doobie Bros,
Like Brad Pitt I’m gonna share the bowl around
It won’t take long I gotta pack one for
Washington, Shakespeare
Elizabeth, Columbus,
The Pharaohs and JFK
Oscar Wilde and Cranston
Oprah, Bill Gates
Rolling Stones and Beatles
Seth Rogan, Martha Stewart
Ga Ga , Madonna
Joan of Ark, Clooney, Depp
Robert Downy Junior
Robin Williams, Jay Z
Ancient Greeks, the Sultans
Morocco, Jamaica and Swaziland
Nepal and all hail Amsterdam
And 420 heads everywhere!
The people have spoken
They’re still tokin!
