I Haight Ashbury

I Haight Ashbury

It’s Camden Market with a tan

I Haight Ashbury

The sixties are over, man

I Haight Ashbury

Whereas once the hippy dream made sense

Now it makes cents and dollars

Out of tie dye t-shirts and Grateful Dead posters

Jim Morrison placemats and Hendrix drinks coasters

You can buy bongs with your Barclaycard

This is shop counter culture

Disneyland for wannabe drop-outs

Where only tourists wear

Flowers in their hair

Yeah, I Haight Ashbury

Don’t ever bother going there

If you’re going to San Francisco
