Intro

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

Seargeant sent a letter to five

  Military wives, his tears drip down to 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

( D O N T P L A Y H E R E )

And the anchorperson on TV goes

  La de da de da

Fifteen celebrity mimes

  Leaving their fifteen sorted 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 a garment to five

  Celebrity mimes, 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

( D O N T P L A Y H E R E )

And the anchorperson on TV goes

  La de da de da de di de di de da

  La de da de da de di de di de da

Bridge

Fourteen cannibal kings

  Wondering blindly what the dinner bell will bring

Fifteen celebrity mimes

  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

( D O N T P L A Y H E R E )

And the anchorperson on TV goes

  La de da de da de di de di de da

  La de da de da de di de di de da

  La de da de da de di de di de da

  De da de da de di de di de da

  De da de da de di de di de da
