Give Green a Chance

My mama said, keep off the grass
 You'll fail school and fuck your exams
 But I know, you gotta give it a go
 My daddy said, this stuff's illegal
 What the bastard hell is wrong with people?
 I know, it's not for every soul
 People tell me, give it a rest
 Well I like to think that I know I best!
 It tastes so good to me, that fine, sweet-smelling, remedy
 And I know, it's time, give green a chance
 Been passed down history, that age-old ancient mystery
 About how, we don't give green a chance
 My neighbours say this stuff stinks, we all hate it near our kids
 And I know, it's not for every soul
 The police tell me that I can't toke, which for me, personally
 It's clearly a joke
 Because these leaves of green and peace, keep me afloat
 People tell me, give it a rest
 Well I like to think that I know I best!
 It tastes so good to me, that fine, sweet-smelling, remedy
 And I know, it's time, give green a chance
 Been passed down history, that age-old ancient mystery
 About how, we don't give green a chance
 And I know I lose my mind
 And there's better ways to spend my time
 Why can't I make my own mistakes?
 Cos a herb from this earth that can heal is my duty to take
 It tastes so good to me, that fine, sweet-smelling, remedy
 And I know, it's time, give green a chance
 Been passed down history, that age-old ancient mystery
 About how, we don't give green a chance
