Critical Mass Song

Critical Mass Rap

(should be yelled at high volume)

by Stephen LaMarca of Santa Cruz, CA

Come on y'all
and get your ass
straight on down to the 
Critical Mass

You don't need a car
You don't need gas
Just to ride around town 
in the Critical Mass

Throw away your petrol machine
and live the best life you've ever seen
Livin', lovin' with Mother Earth
Using the tools she gave you at birth

It's a celebration
Movin' in rotation
Going clear across the nation

Talking evolution revolution
It's a celebrations
What a revelation revolution

So come on y'all
and get your ass
straight on down to
the Critical Mass

You don't need a car
You don't need gas
Just to ride around town
in the Critical Mass

Now we're taking back the street 
with the power of our feet
coming from --your spot here-- 
where we meet

We go slow
yo' mellow don't you know
we don't go fast
don't matter if you're last
you won't get past 
the Critical Mass

Now beauty in the midst of motion
People got the power of the ocean
Power to the people with the people power! (2x)
(note: San Francisco Critical Mass has surpassed the 2,000 rider mark in their monthly rides. New rides are materializing coast to coast, most recently in Albuquerque and Cleveland. Over 3 dozen cities have regular monthly Critical Mass rides.)
