Sixteen military wives | |
Thirty-two softly focused, brightly colored eyes | |
Staring at the natural tan | |
Of thirty-two gently clenching wrinkled little hands | |
Seventeen company men | |
Out of which only twelve will make it back again | |
Sergeant sends a letter to five | |
Military wives whose tears drip down from ten little eyes | |
Cheer them on to their rivals | |
'Cause America can, and America can't say no | |
And America does, if America says it's so, it's so | |
And the anchor person on TV | |
Goes La de da de da | |
Fifteen celebrity minds | |
Leading their Fifteen sordid, wretched, checkered lives | |
Will they find the solution in time | |
Using their Fifteen pristine, moderate, liberal minds | |
Eighteen academy chairs | |
Out of which only seven really even care | |
Doling out the garland to five | |
Celebrity minds, they're humbly taken by surprise | |
Cheer them on to their rivals | |
'Cause America can, and America can't say no | |
And America does, if America says it's so, it's so | |
And the anchor person on TV | |
Goes la de da de da, de di de da de da | |
La de da de da, de di de da de da | |
Fourteen cannibal kings | |
Wondering blithely what the dinner bell will bring | |
Fifteen celebrity minds | |
Served on a leafy bed of sixteen military wives | |
Cheer them on to their rivals | |
Cause America can, and America can't say no | |
And America does, if America says it's so, it's so | |
And the anchor person on TV | |
Goes la de da de da, de di de da de da | |
La de da de da, de di de da de da | |
La de da de da, de di de da de da | |
La de da de da, de di de da de da | |
La de da de da, de di de da de da |
