Cannabinoid Fandom



          Cannabinoid Fandom

We’re coming, we’re coming, our brave little band
Adoring Cannabis we do take our stand
We don’t like tobacco, too much makes you die
That sure gets you down but it can’t get you high

Chorus:
Hooray, hooray for THC
For CBD, for THCV
Hooray, hooray for THC
That’s the song of cannabinoid fandom

Oh, this is a weed many people impugn
They say that it turns a man into a loon
Amidst all these filkers I must disagree
I don’t see a one who is saner than me

(Chorus)

They say that it changes your time and your space
And also that memory loses its place
Now let me explain why these claim are all wrong…
… I think I’ve forgotten this part of the song

(Chorus)

Now, some SF books with enough pot will click
Read R. Anton Wilson or Philip K. Dick
Yes, SF and smoking combined will engage
That is, if your eyes do not drift off the page

(Chorus)

Some levels of usage we don’t recommend
A fellow one shared seven pounds with a friend
By joint ninety-nine he was talking with God
The next thing he did was exceedingly odd

(Chorus)

We know it’s illegal but this will not last
The sales are high and the money’s amassed
With votes, cash and more cash the weed will hold sway
For that, my friend is the American Way

(Chorus)

We’ve heard lots of songs praising Tullimore Dew
(pause to toke)
We think marijuana deserves some praise too
Yet with our acclaim, there is bad news to tell:
It’ll lead you to fandom, and filking as well

(Chorus)

We’re coming, we’re coming, our brave little band
We’re dodging patrolmen all over the land
There’s one reason they’d prefer that we drink;
Some smokers, it seems, are still able to think

(Chorus)
