1
Sun Green started makin' waves
2
On the day that Grandpa died
3
Speakin' out against anything
4
Unjust or packed with lies
5
She chained herself to a statue of an eagle
6
In the lobby of Power Co
7
And started yelling through a megaphone
8
"There's corruption on the highest floor."
9
Suits poured out of elevators
10
"You're all dirty."
11
Phoneheads began to speak
12
"You can't trust any of them."
13
Security couldn't get her down
14
She was welded to the eagle's beak
15
Sun Green leaned into that megaphone, said
16
"Truth is all I seek."
17
Security brought in some blow torches
18
News cameras recorded her speech
19
"When the city is plunged into darkness
20
By an unpredicted rolling blackout
21
The White House always blames the governor
22
Saying the solution is to vote him out."
23
On top of that great bronze eagle
24
Sun's voice was loud and clear. She said
25
"Power Co's working with the White House
26
To paralyze our state with fear."
27
It was a golden moment
28
In the history of TV news
29
No one could believe it
30
It just got great reviews
31
"Hey, Mr. Clean, you're dirty now, too
32
Hey, Mr. Clean, you're dirty now, too
33
Hey, Mr. Clean, you're dirty now, too
34
Hey, Mr. Clean, you're dirty now, too."
35
The Imitators were playing
36
Down at Jon Lee's bar
37
When Sun went down to see ?em
38
Someone followed her in a car
39
Now when she goes dancin'
40
She has to watch her back
41
The FBI just trashed her room
42
One of them kicked her cat
43
Damn thing scratched his leg
44
So he had to shoot it dead
45
And leave it lyin' in a puddle of blood
46
At the foot of Sun Green's bed
47
Jon Lee's was rockin'
48
The Imitators drove it home
49
Sun was dancin' up a heat wave
50
For awhile she was all alone
51
When up walked a tall stranger
52
Shadowed her move to move
53
In perfect unison
54
A supernatural groove
55
He took her by the hand
56
And the room began to spin
57
He said, "I'm EarthEarth Brown
58
You know the shape I'm in
59
"I'm leavin' tonight for Alaska
60
And I want you to come in the spring
61
And be a goddess in the planet wars
62
And save the living things
63
"I'm ready to go right now,"
64
Sun Green told Earth Brown
65
"Let's go back to my place
66
Pick up my cat, and leave this town behind."
67
"Hey, Mr. Clean, you're dirty now, too
68
Hey, Mr. Clean, you're dirty now, too
69
Hey, Mr. Clean, you're dirty now, too
70
Hey, Mr. Clean."
71
Next day Sun Green got busted for pot
72
And it made the headline news
73
But then the charges all got dropped
74
And the story gets confused
75
?I'd still like to meet Julia Butterfly
76
And see what remedy brings
77
And be a goddess in the planet wars
78
Try to save the living things
79
"But that might not be easy
80
Livin' on the run
81
Mother Earth has many enemies
82
There's much work to be done
83
"Hey, Mr. Clean, you're dirty now, too
84
Hey, Mr. Clean, you're dirty now, too
85
Hey, Mr. Clean, you're dirty now, too
86
Hey, Mr. Clean."
