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?
