[00:17.79] | I was living in Angola, |
[00:20.49] | Reading in the paper |
[00:22.54] | 'Bout the new depression |
[00:24.55] | Got the States upset |
[00:26.73] | Still, I just can't see |
[00:28.86] | How only one TV |
[00:30.98] | And two slightly used cars |
[00:32.85] | Causes such regrets |
[00:35.11] | In this country such as ours, |
[00:37.48] | If we had these things, |
[00:39.36] | We would either be European |
[00:41.60] | Or descend from kings |
[00:46.98] | |
[00:53.04] | Oh! Sometimes, you know, |
[00:54.67] | I hunger for more than food, |
[00:57.35] | For more than the shelter |
[00:59.10] | From the cold monsoons |
[01:01.67] | I'd like swimmin' pools |
[01:03.60] | And refrigerated air |
[01:05.92] | And an extra room to spare |
[01:07.86] | (No more ten to a room), |
[01:10.29] | And a thinking color set |
[01:12.17] | With a close-up zoom |
[01:14.36] | But in this country such as ours, |
[01:16.92] | If we had these things, |
[01:18.73] | We'd be a U.N. delegation |
[01:21.17] | Or a visiting queen |
[01:25.37] | |
[01:27.49] | Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |
[01:31.68] | |
[01:49.57] | And you remember well |
[01:52.19] | The day when old Wall Street fell |
[01:58.06] | And do you fear it again? |
[02:02.37] | Still there is one major difference |
[02:04.81] | In just how we see some things |
[02:07.00] | What you call poor we call prosperity |
[02:12.43] | Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |
[02:17.37] | |
[02:18.31] | Ooh! Sometimes, you know, |
