[00:00.220]	Lovely girl won't you stay, won't you stay, stay with me
[00:06.580]	All my life I was blind, I was blind, now I see
[00:12.400]	Lovely girl won't you stay, won't you stay, stay with me
[00:18.330]	All my life I was blind, I was blind, now I see
[00:23.150]	.
[00:30.830]	Fleet of black, fleet of black limousines
[00:36.770]	These tinted machines, here comes the cavalcade
[00:46.200]	With the armored cars, armored cars like berettas
[00:52.900]	Flags on antennas designed to keep me safe, keep me safe
[01:00.580]	.
[01:01.830]	And oh my my oh hey hey
[01:04.100]	Here he comes, the candidate
[01:07.530]	Blue eyed boy, United States
[01:10.100]	Vote for him, the candidate
[01:12.900]	.
[01:16.340]	Diamonds cut, diamonds cut for the carrots
[01:22.530]	Plaster of Paris, the floats fill up the street
[01:30.600]	And the beauty queens, beauty queens with the white gloves
[01:37.910]	All sick from the night clubs,
[01:40.800]	they wave with pageantry, pageantry
[01:45.360]	.
[01:46.990]	And oh my my oh hey hey
[01:49.670]	Here it comes, the big parade
[01:53.50]	Marching bands and barricades
[01:55.600]	Make way, for the big parade
[01:58.920]	Oh oh oh
[02:01.800]	.
[02:11.609]	Canvas covered, canvas covered in resin
[02:18.228]	The violent men who dance the blood ballet
[02:22.978]
[02:26.519]	And the bookies say, bookies say it's the 3rd round
[02:33.79]	Oh when Louie will go down, if he don't
[02:37.269]	There's hell to pay, and hell to raise
[02:41.519]	.
[02:42.519]	And oh my my oh hey hey
[02:45.329]	Here he comes, the welterweight
[02:48.579]	Take a dive, for goodness sake
[02:50.890]	Or say goodbye to the welterweight
[02:53.899]	.
[02:57.329]	Catholic priest, catholic priest in a crisis
[03:03.200]	Torn between romance and Jesus, who will win the civil war
[03:12.200]	And he says I'm in love, I'm in love with a woman
[03:18.829]	Yea this is my confession,
[03:21.899]	I'm leaving I can't be a priest anymore, anymore
[03:26.640]	.
[03:28.390]	And oh my my oh hey hey
[03:30.890]	There he goes, the man of faith
[03:34.390]	Left the church for a fiancée
[03:36.890]	Let him love, the man of faith
[03:40.209]	Oh oh oh
[03:42.890]	.
[03:46.79]	TV cameras, TV cameras and stage hands
[03:59.499]	American bandstand, electric guitars
[04:07.289]	And he's singin' songs, singin' songs for the lonely
[04:15.99]	All the girls with the room keys,
[04:17.779]	They know all his words by heart,
[04:21.289]	By heart and they all sing
