Music in Berkeley
by Jerry Ratch
There I saw a woman with dyed long red hair
Dressed all in furs and a short tight skirt
Way too young for her age
And she was banging a tampon on her leg
At the performance of Ramblin Jack Eliot
And no one got up to throw red wine on her
Full mink coat, or ermine, or rabbit
In it, she looked a little like a bear

I am reminded of a scene from a TV show, I can't remember which. Something with a little blonde protagonist. Anyway, she's wearing a vest with a fur hood and while she's talking to one kid, two other straight edge vegans sneak up and (if I remember correctly) cut the hood off and put it through the shredder. The little blonde protagonist gets pissed because it wasn't even real fur.
Just can't tell by looking any more.
