Roll On Columbia by Alice


Alice's Comments:  (Sorry Woody)


My bicylce made by Columbia Elite,
For my comfort had a soft bicycle seat,
I sped down the street peeling oranges so neat,
The members of Greenpeace would say,

Roll on, Columbia roll on,
Roll on, Columbia roll on,
Your power is p.c. and doesn't take brawn,
So roll on, Columbia, roll on.

I only ate oranges and apples and pears
I protested killings of bison and bears
The loggers were jobless, but I said "who cares",
And all of the vegans would say,

Roll on, Columbia roll on,
Roll on, Columbia roll on,
Your power is veggie, let's graze on the lawn,
So roll on, Columbia, roll on.

The food co-op taught me to stop eating cheese,
To stop using soap or things made out of trees,
But, I found there were many diseases from fleas,
So to all those fanatics I say,

Roll on, Columbia roll on,
Roll on, Columbia roll on,
The power to think for myself isn't gone,
Now roll on, Columbia, roll on.
