America For Beginners
What's keeping the White House whiteIs it chalk, Is it fog, Is it fear?Are they staying up most of the nightAnd sending somebody out for a beer?Is it bed-time for Bonzo?Is it time for a change?Is it flavour-free TV dinners?It's a hard thing to take, when they make a mistakeAmerica for Beginners.The sound of a bell with a crackEven the swingers are swinging rightThe vigilantes are on the way backWith prime-time 'fight the good fight'.What a start to a dayIt starts three times with a "K"There's no sponsored hour for sinnersThey'll bring back the hot seatAnd turn up the heatAmerica for BeginnersThat's America for Beginners.You wear designer jeans after darkAnd your shirts are sharp-cut in satinBut won't you watch out for Central ParkAnd apartments in uptown Manhattan.It's a sign of the timesBetter stay uot in frontBecause they've only got time for winners.Just keep living for fun, you son of a gunAmerica for Beginners.Everywhere there's stripes and starsMen in dark suits in unmarked carsSipping Jack Daniels in Third World barsThey're close to the edge.They're as close as you can get.
