Fall Of The American Empire by State Radio


Did you get the invitation?

The swan song of a nation

Everyone's waiting for you inside.

We got soda pop and hickory stills.

Quinn the Eskimo in espadrilles

And Sally makin' you feel all right.

 

The baroness and her bayonets

The mad hatter hedging bets

Against the good judgment of the swinging king.

It's the fall of the American empire

But don't you worry honey you didn't miss a thing.

 

Juiced up dignitaries getting' loose like Thelonious did

We got our own sanctimonious kid

And he can suck the diamond off a diamond ring.

Just send in the farmers in the National Guard

We'll be in the war room gettin' hard

Just wear your dress blues you know you look so damn dashing.

Don't be shy Sally won't bite you

'Cause she got her pants on fire

And she got a rabbit baby calling your name.

Fall of the American empire

It should've been all right

Should've should've.

But me I'm just working a sound bite

Just rolling my smokes tight.

You know they said it was all right all right all right.

 

'Cause Lucy's in the nude

With nothing left to lose

Except them thigh-high kiss the sky American boots.

 

Sally got dirty with a senator's son

You know the one from Massachusetts

She was pleased to come his advances

For he was a man of wealth and taste.

But she got so cut up by the man who would not stop.

Thought all she needed was love

But it was like nothing she thought

And when Lucy came to get her

In the corner she lay.

 

It's the fall of the American empire

It should've been all right

Should've should've.

But me I'm just working a sound bite

Just rolling my smokes tight.

You know they said it was all right all right all right all right all right.

Where you going Mr. Holy?

All right all right all right

Say where you going Mr. Holy?

 

Lucy girl I found your diamonds

They shine like sirens

Singing from the shoals of buzzard's bay.

It's worse than we know

How I wish it wasn't so

That all tomorrow's parties have gone away.

 

Fall (all in for the fall) of the American empire

They said you would never go away.

Fall (all in for the fall) of the American empire

Lucy girl can't you just stay?
