Ungoogleable Musical Trivia

HELP! I'm being followed! Can you name what is following me? Regardless, it's no big deal. If it catches me and I lose my legs, I won't moan, I also won't beg. What if it destroys my hands? In that case I won't have to work no more. OMG, what if it eats my eyes!!! No problem. I won't have to cry no more. If it's claws slice off my mouth, well at least I won't have to talk... Because I'm being followed by a M*******w. M*******w, m*******w.

Hippie hint: This song was written by a hippie who then became a muslim. Another hint: His last name has been changed to 'Islam'. No more hints are forthcoming.

(I think I made this too cryptic. Nevertheless, set the bar high, people! I'll lower it in the future if I overdid it and no one gets it.)
