During the 1980s , radio station KKRZ-FM in Portland , Oregon , recorded a parody of the song called " Shut Up Sheela " , which mocked Ma Anand Sheela 's habit of using profanity in media interviews . At the time , followers of the Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh had attempted to hijack the government of rural Wasco County , Oregon , by bussing-in homeless people and encouraging them to vote in county elections . The parody was released on a 45 record , to raise funds to assist in caring for these homeless , many of whom were abandoned after the electoral takeover failed . Several leaders of the Rajneesh movement , including Sheela , were arrested in connection with a bioterror attack perpetrated by members of the group
