You ring me up to let me know That I should write a song for you That lifts the soul Something light, not my specialty Maybe something more like you And less like me So I wrote this for you You can pass it around And play it while the ship's goin' down Here it is, sing along LIke every one of us is oblivious To what's goin' on Sing it out, loud and strong I hope you like this very happy song The end is near, it's bombs away There goes my pension plan And 401K Up in smoke just like that Went from hope to broken In two seconds flat Hear no evil, speak no evil Just watch the show Three little monkeys all in a row Here it is, sing along Like every one of us is oblivious To what's goin' on Sing it out, loud and strong I hope you like this very happy song We're americans, proud and strong If all that we have left is this song So here it is, sing along Like every one of us is oblivious To what's goin' on Sing it out, loud and strong I hope you like this very Sardonic and contrary Extra ordinary happy song
