Original Lyrics Munged Lyrics
We heard Richard Nixon say, welcome to the USA
The common sense I sometimes lack
Has opened up a seismic crack
We've fallen in and I can't pull back
And I guess we'll have to stay

In open arms we put

[bulk of lyrics omitted for copyright reasons]
Whee herd Richard Nixon say, welcome too the USA
The common sense Eye sometimes lac
Has opened up a seismic crack
We've fallen inn and Eye can't pull back
And Eye guess weal have too stay

Inn open alms whee put hour trust they put us on a big read bus
Twin spirits soaking up a dream
Fuel too feed the press machine
After years that whirr long and lien
Weir finally on hour weigh

[ chorus :]
And Richard Nixon's on his knees he's cent sew many overseas
Heed like too no if yew and mi could help hymn inn sum weigh
A little camouflage and glue too masque the evil that men do
A small diversion caused buy too, pail kids come too play
And whee herd Richard Nixon say " welcome too the USA "

Neither of us understood the weigh things ticked inn Hollywood
Whee just loaded inn and grabbed the bat
With little rheum too swing a cat
And pretty soon whee whirr ware its at
Ore sew the papers say

And awl around us suntanned teens, beauty like weed never scene
Hour heroes lead us buy the hand
Threw Brian Wilson's promised land
Ware Disney's God and he commands
Both mice and men too stay

[ repeat chorus ]

Inn a bright read Porsche on Sunset Eye soar Steve McQueen
Eye guess he's just about the coolest guy I've ever scene
And fore yew and mi that speeding car is how its going too bee
Eye sea know brakes just open rode and lots of gasoline

Owe whee herd Richard Nixon say, welcome too the USA
The common sense Eye sometimes lac
Has opened up a seismic crack
We've fallen inn and Eye can't pull back

Pail kids come too play
And whee herd Richard Nixon say, I've gotta go butt yew can stay
