BUFFY SAINTE-MARIE
"Mongrel Pup"

Robots of gloom they come and go
Don't let em get you down
Laughter is the grease of growth
Support your local clown
Don't ever be afraid to smile
At what you really love
Laughter is the grease of growth. Yeah.

Little boys love the Gypsy woman
Who lives down on the beach
They love her flashy Gypsy skirt
And nothing on beneath
They love her ferris wheel legs
Her roller coaster eyes
Little boys love the Gypsy woman. Yeah.

Little girls love the nature boy
Who lives among the shells
They love to see him body surf
Upon their little selves
They love his silky seaweed hair
They love his sunset eyes
Little girls love the nature boy

And Baby is a mongrel pup
Hybrid mutant girl
Cross-bred nomad stronghead
And Happy in the big bad world
We are the Space Age Council of
Intertribal Straight Ahead
And maybe you're a mongrel pup. Yeah.
