Dar Williams - College Girl lyrics

I'm not a leader I'm not a left-wing,rehtoric, mobilizing force of one But but there was a time way back many years ago in college Don't laugh but I thought I was a radical I ran a hemp liberation league with my boyfriend It was true love with a common cause and besides that he was a sagittarius We used to say that our love was like hemp rope three times as strong as the rope that you buy domesticly we would bond in the face of oppression from big business and the Deans But I knew there was a problem every time the group would meet everyone would light up It made it difficult to discuss glaucoma and human rights, not to mention chemotherapy Well, sometimes life gives us lessons sent in ridiculous packaging So I found him in the arms of a "student against the treacherous use of fur" And he gave no apology He just turned to me stoned out to the edge of oblivion He didn't pull up the sheets and I think he even smiled as the said to me: (spoken) -Well, I guess our dreams went up in smoke.....Huhuh -and I said: -No, our dreams went up in dreams....you stupid pot-head And another thing What kind of a name is "students against the treacherous use of fur" Fur is already dead and besides a name like that doesn't make a good acronym I am older now I know the rise and gradual fall of a daily victory And I still write to my Senators saying they should legalize cannabis and I should know 'Cause I am a horticulturist I have a husband and two children out in Lexington, Ma**. And my ex-boyfriend can't tell me I've sold out Because he's in a cult and he's not allowed to talk to me.....
