<br>Sun Green started makin` waves<br>On the day that Grandpa died<br>Speakin` out against anything<br>Unjust or packed with lies<br>She chained herself to a statue of an eagle<br>In the lobby of Power Co.<br><br>And started yelling through a megaphone,<br>"There`s corruption on the highest floor."<br>Suits poured out of elevators<br>"You`re all dirty."<br><br>Phoneheads began to speak<br>"You can`t trust any of them."<br>Security couldn`t get her down<br>She was welded to the eagle`s beak.<br><br>Sun Green leaned into that megaphone, said,<br>"Truth is all I seek."<br>Security brought in some blow torches<br>News cameras recorded her speech,<br>"When the city is plunged into darkness<br>by an unpredicted rolling blackout<br><br>The White House always blames the governor<br>Saying the solution is to vote him out."<br>On top of that great bronze eagle<br>Sun`s voice was loud and clear. She said,<br>"Power Co`s working with the White House<br>to paralyze our state with fear."<br><br>It was a golden moment<br>In the history of TV news<br>No one could believe it<br>It just got great reviews<br><br>"Hey, Mr. Clean, you`re dirty now, too.<br>Hey, Mr. Clean, you`re dirty now, too.<br>Hey, Mr. Clean, you`re dirty now, too.<br>Hey, Mr. Clean, you`re dirty now, too."<br><br>The Imitators were playing<br>Down at Jon Lee`s bar<br>When Sun went down to see �em<br>Someone followed her in a car<br><br>Now when she goes dancin`<br>She has to watch her back<br>The FBI just trashed her room<br>One of them kicked her cat<br><br>Damn thing scratched his leg<br>So he had to shoot it dead<br>And leave it lyin` in a puddle of blood<br>At the foot of Sun Green`s bed<br><br>Jon Lee`s was rockin`<br>The Imitators drove it home<br>Sun was dancin` up a heat wave<br>For awhile she was all alone<br><br>When up walked a tall stranger<br>Shadowed her move to move<br>In perfect unison<br>A supernatural groove<br><br>He took her by the hand<br>And the room began to spin<br>He said, "I`m Earth; Earth Brown.<br>You know the shape I`m in.<br><br>"I`m leavin` tonight for Alaska<br>And I want you to come in the spring<br>And be a goddess in the planet wars<br>And save the living things.<br><br>"I`m ready to go right now,"<br>Sun Green told Earth Brown<br>"Let`s go back to my place,<br>pick up my cat, and leave this town behind."<br><br>"Hey, Mr. Clean, you`re dirty now, too.<br>Hey, Mr. Clean, you`re dirty now, too.<br>Hey, Mr. Clean, you`re dirty now, too.<br>Hey, Mr. Clean."<br><br>Next day Sun Green got busted for pot<br>And it made the headline news<br>But then the charges all got dropped<br>And the story gets confused<br><br>�I`d still like to meet Julia Butterfly<br>And see what remedy brings<br>And be a goddess in the planet wars<br>Try to save the living things<br><br>"But that might not be easy<br>Livin` on the run<br>Mother Earth has many enemies<br>There`s much work to be done<br><br>"Hey, Mr. Clean, you`re dirty now, too.<br>Hey, Mr. Clean, you`re dirty now, too.<br>Hey, Mr. Clean, you`re dirty now, too.<br>Hey, Mr. Clean."
