THE GREAT AMERICAN CURE
|
|
i went to the doctor all nervous and crazy /
|
i told him the way things were / he smiled
|
quite nicely and without thinking twice he
|
said / just try the great american cure
|
|
put your brain in neutral / turn on the tele-
|
vision set / kick off your shoes and don't
|
worry / they haven't cut the power off yet
|
|
so i went on home and i tried his prescrip-
|
tion / i watched till my eyeballs dried / the
|
good guys are winning i can't keep from grin-
|
ning / and i dream about the tv guide
|
|
put your brain in neutral / turn on the tele-
|
vision set / kick off your shoes and don't
|
worry / they haven't cut the power off yet
|
|
.......
|
|
so if you feel faint when you pick up the
|
papers / if politics make you ill / if people
|
upset you and high prices get you / and
|
you're just too broke to purchase a thrill
|
|
put your brain in neutral / turn on the tele-
|
vision set / kick off your shoes and don't
|
worry / they haven't cut the power off yet
|
|
.......
|
|
i went to the doctor all nervous and crazy /

put your brain in neutral / turn on the tele-
|
vision set / kick off your shoes and don't
|
worry / they haven't cut the power off yet
|
|
all night movies / thing it's time to tune
|
out / prime time boob tube / baby's getting
|
burned out
