Hippie Boy - Caroline's Spine

My hippie boy don't want to be a man 
My hippie boy don't want to understand 
My hippie boy don't lives in a volkswagon van 
My hippie boy don't don't know how to communicate 
Says he knows love that knows no hate 
My hippie boy leaves his life up to fate 
... yeah he's my hippie boy 
My hippie boy don't don't know his own feelings 
Wants to draw flowers on my ceiling 
I think my hippies boy's trying to do me in 
My hippie boy don't don't follow the commandmants 
Don't follow law, he don't follow government 
My hippie boy wants to start his own settlement 
...yeah he's my hippie boy 
And he said "come sit beside me 
And tell me 'bout the things you adore 
And please don't remind me that 
I am not the boy you'd hoped for..." 
My hippie boy won't get up off his ass 
He don't care if he fail or if he pass 
My hippie boy ... i know he's been smoking grass 
My hippie boy don't ever know where to begin 
Says he wasn't put on this earth to fit it 
My hippie boy got his mama sticking up for him 
... yeah he's my hippie boy 
And he said "come sit beside me 
And tell me 'bout the things you adore 
And please don't remind me that 
I am not the boy you'd hoped for..." 
My hippie boy left our lives to join a band 
Says his band plays throughout the land 
My hippie boy bought his mom a car for 20 grand 
They say he's putting our town up on the map 
The mayor called this morning for a photograph 
Now he kids are asking me for my autohraph 
... because of my hippie boy
