America For Beginners Lyrics - Toyah

What's keeping the White House, white 

Is it chalk, is it fog, is it fear 

Are they staying up most of the night 

Sending somebody out for a beer 

Is it bedtime for Bonzo, is it time for a change 

Is it flavour-free TV dinners 

It's a hard thing to take, when they make a mistake 

America for beginners 

The sound of a bell with a crack 

Even the swingers are swinging right 

The vigilantes are on their way back 

With prime time fight, the good fight 

What a start to the day, it starts three times with a K 

There's no sponsored hour for sinners 

They'll bring back the hot seat, turn up the heat 

America for beginners 

That's America for, America for beginners 

That's America for, America for beginners 

That's America for, America for beginners 

That's America for beginners 

You wear designer jeans after dark 

Your shirts are short cut, in satin 

But watch out for Central Park 

The apartment's in uptown Manhattan 

It's a sign of the times 

You'd better stay out in front 

They've only got time for winners 

Just keep living for fun, you son of a gun 

In America for beginners 

That's America for, America for beginners 

That's America for, America for beginners 

That's America for, America for beginners 

That's America for beginners
