Crazy Horse

Crazy Horse (Lakota: Tȟašúŋke Witkó, IPA:tχaʃʊ̃kɛ witkɔ in Standard Lakota Orthography), literally "His-Horse-Is-Crazy" or "His-Horse-Is-Spirited"; ca. 1840 – September 5, 1877) was a Native American war leader of the Oglala Lakota. He took up arms against the U.S. Federal government to fight against encroachments on the territories and way of life of the Lakota people, including leading a war party to victory at the Battle of the Little Bighorn in June 1876. more »

Sun Green started making waves
On the day her grandpa died
Speakin' out against anything
Unjust or packed with lies

She chained herself to a statue of an eagle
In the lobby of Powerco
And started yelling through a megaphone
"There's corruption on the highest floor"

Suits poured out of elevators "They're all dirty"
Phoneheads began to speak "You can't trust anybody"
But security couldn't get her down
She was welded to the eagle's beak

Sun green leaned into that megaphone
And said, "Truth is all I seek"
Security brought in some blowtorches
News cameras recorded the speech

"When the city is plunged into darkness
By an unpredicted rolling blackout
The White House always blames the governor
Sayin' 'The solution is to vote him out'"

On top of that great bronze eagle
Sun's voice was loud and clear
She said, "Powerco is working with the White House
To paralyze our state with fear"

It was a golden moment golden moment (golden moment)
In the history of TV news
No one could explain it
It just got great reviews

"Hey Mr. Clean
You're dirty now too
Hey Mr. Clean
You're dirty now too
Hey Mr. Clean
You're dirty now too
Hey Mr. Clean
You're dirty now too"

The Imitators were playing
Down at John Lee's Bar
When Sun went down to see 'em
Someone followed her in a car

So now when she goes dancing
She has to watch her back
The FBI just trashed her room
One of them kicked her cat

The damn thing scratched his leg
And he had to shoot it dead
And leave it lying in a puddle of blood
At the foot of Sun Green's bed

"Hey Mr. Clean
You're dirty now too
Hey Mr. Clean
You're dirty now too
Hey Mr. Clean
You're dirty now too
Hey Mr. Clean
You're dirty now too"

John Lee's was rocking
The Imitators drove it home
Sun was dancing up a heatwave
For a while she was all alone

When up walked a tall stranger
He shadowed her move-to-move
In perfect unison
A supernatural groove

He took her by the hand
And the room began to spin
He said, "I'm Earth, Earth Brown
You know the shape I'm in"

"I'm leavin' tonight for Alaska
And I want you to come in the spring
And be a goddess in the planet war
Trying to save the livin' things"

"I'm ready to go right now"
Sun Green told Earth Brown
"Let's go back to my place
Pick up my cat and leave this town behind"

(FBI)

(What?)

(God damn)

"Hey Mr. Clean
You're dirty now too
Hey Mr. Clean
You're dirty now too
Hey Mr. Clean
You're dirty now too
Hey Mr. Clean
You're dirty now too"

Next day, Sun Green got busted for pot
And it made the headline news
But then the charges all got dropped
And the story got confused

She'd still like to meet Julia Butterfly
And see what remedy brings
And be a goddess in the planet wars
Trying to save the living things

But that might not be easy
Living on the run
Mother Earth has many enemies
There's much work to be done

"Hey Mr. Clean
You're dirty now too
Hey Mr. Clean
You're dirty now too
Hey Mr. Clean
You're dirty now too
Hey Mr. Clean
You're dirty now too"
