I don`t care about your karma
I don`t care about what`s hip
No space cadet`s gonna tell me what to do
I won`t swim in your Jacuzzi
You can`t make me settle down
I`d rather kick and jump and bite and scratch
And scream until I`m blue
I may as well be hyper as long as I`m still around
`Cause I`ll have lots of time to be laid back
When I`m six feet underground.
(Chorus)
I`ll be mellow when I`m dead (I`ll be mellow when I`m dead)
I`ll be mellow when I`m dead (I`ll be mellow when I`m dead)
I`ll be mellow when I`m dead (I`ll be mellow when I`m dead)
When are you cosmic cowboys gonna get it through your heads
I`ll be mellow when I`m dead
I`ll be mellow when I`m dead
I`ll be mellow when I`m dead
I can`t stand the smell of incense
I don`t really like to jog
No Joanie Mitchell 8-tracks in the car (oooh)
I hate anything organic
Even health food makes me sick
You won`t catch me sipping Perrier
Down in some sushi bar, I tell you
Now`s the time to go for all the gusto you can grab
You`ll have plenty of time to be low-key
When you`re laid out on the slab
(Chorus)
Ow! Bobcat!
I don`t want no part of that vegetarian scene
I won`t buy me a pair of designer jeans
No redwood hot tub to my name
I got all that I want and if it`s all the same to you
I don`t need a course in selfawareness
To find out who I am
And I`d rather have a Big Mac or a Jumbo Jack
Than all the bean sprouts in Japan
Ah so don`t ask me what I`m into
I don`t need to prove I`m cool
I`ll break your arm if you ask me what`s my sign
I won`t tell you where my head`s at
I don`t need to see no shrink
Psychosis may be in this year but I`m really not that kind
And I`m in no hurry to be casual
In fact I think I`ll wait
Until I`m pushing up the daisies
Like wow, man, can you relate?
I`ll be mellow when I`m dead
I`ll be mellow when I`m dead
I`ll be mellow when I`m dead (mellow when I`m dead)
I`ll be mellow when I`m dead
I`ll be mellow when I`m dead
I`ll be mellow when I`m dead (mellow when I`m dead)
I`ll be mellow when I`m dead
I`ll be mellow when I`m dead .....wooooowww!
