I Ll Be Mellow When I M Dead lyrics

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 under ground.

CHORUS:
I`ll be mellow when I`m dead. (6 times)
When are you
Cosmic cowboys
Gonna get it through your head.
I`ll be mellow when I`m dead. (6 times)

I can`t stand the smell of incense.
I don`t really like to jog.
No Joni Mitchell eight-tracks in my car. (ooh)
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

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 self-awareness
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!

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. (9 times)
