Toyah Willcox - America For Beginners lyrics

(Skaith/Jones) What's keeping the White House white Is it chalk, is it fog, is it fear Are they staying up most of the night Sending somebody out for a beer Is it bedtime 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 mistake America for beginners The sound of a bell with a crack Even the swingers are swinging right The vigilantes are on their way back With prime time fight, the good fight What a start to the day, it starts three times with a K There's no sponsored hour for sinners They'll bring back the hot seat, turn up the heat America for beginners That's America for, America for beginners That's America for, America for beginners That's America for, America for beginners That's America for beginners You wear designer jeans after dark Your shirts are short cut, in satin But watch out for Central Park The apartment's in uptown Manhattan It's a sign of the times You'd better stay out in front They've only got time for winners Just keep living for fun, you son of a gun In America for beginners That's America for, America for beginners That's America for, America for beginners That's America for, America for beginners That's America for beginners Everywhere the stripes and stars Men in dark suits and unmarked cars Sipping Jack Daniels in Third World bars We're close to the edge, as close as we can get We're as close as we can get Toyah Willcox - verbals Frank Ricotti - percussion Ian Wherry - all keyboards John Kirby - backing vocals Toyah Willcox - backing vocals Linda Taylor - backing vocals Chris Neil - backing vocals
