Sun Green

Sun Green started makin' waves

On the day that Grandpa died

Speakin' out against anything

Unjust or packed with lies

She chained herself to a statue of an eagle

In the lobby of Power Co.

And started yelling through a megaphone,

"There's corruption on the highest floor."

Suits poured out of elevators

"You're all dirty."

Phoneheads began to speak

"You can't trust any of them."

Security couldn't get her down

She was welded to the eagle's beak.

Sun Green leaned into that megaphone, said,

"Truth is all I seek."

Security brought in some blow torches

News cameras recorded her speech,

"When the city is plunged into darkness

By an unpredicted rolling blackout

The White House always blames the governor

Saying the solution is to vote him out."

On top of that great bronze eagle

Sun's voice was loud and clear. She said,

"Power Co's working with the White House

To paralyze our state with fear."

It was a golden moment

In the history of TV news

No one could believe 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 â??em

Someone followed her in a car

Now when she goes dancin'

She has to watch her back

The FBI just trashed her room

One of them kicked her cat

Damn thing scratched his leg

So he had to shoot it dead

And leave it lyin' in a puddle of blood

At the foot of Sun Green's bed

John Lee's was rockin'

The Imitators drove it home

Sun was dancin' up a heat wave

For awhile she was all alone

When up walked a tall stranger

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 wars

And save the living 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."

"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."

Next day Sun Green got busted for pot

And it made the headline news

But then the charges all got dropped

And the story gets confused

â??I'd still like to meet Julia Butterfly

And see what remedy brings

And be a goddess in the planet wars

Try to save the living things

"But that might not be easy

Livin' 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."
