Into the Hive

A meeting of the quorum
We’re takin’ this place by storm
Got to get back to the farm
By hook or by crook

We’re young, free and insane
Clothes all creased and stained
Our attitudes inane
And we don’t read books

Into the hive we go
And that’s where we’ll stay
Got a feeling we’re gonna
Get something done today

You wave this and I’ll wave that
Complain at the drop of a hat
Think I saw a diplomat –
Let’s follow his car

Hey, got any Depressions or wars?
Like the people who came before
Need to hook up with some righteous cause
To know who we are

So into the hive we go
And that’s where we’ll stay
Got a feeling we’re gonna 
Get something done today

A moment right now is at hand
What it means, we don’t understand
Maybe let’s invite the whole band
Play songs by Free

Image is everything 
It’s better than any brass ring
So plan our unmasking
On MSNBC

And into the hive we will go…
