There must be something more I can buy in the store And I can not ignore the resemblance With a tune I have heard in a dream that referred To a beautiful world in which everyone wears maroon
Surprise, surprise, bright light into my eyes And in the red sky I saw angels fly by And the angel of death standing next to me said Now there's only one thing left to do for you, sing with me
And they danced and they drank and they thought it was love And they prayed and they thanked the great lord up above For the money he gave them the sex and the booze The American dream in which no one can lose They didn't stop singing with tears in their eyes Their mouths filled with chocolate and strawberry pies They were all so excited, they were all very dumb They had chosen to party the day they dropped the bomb
They dropped the bomb They dropped the bomb
And they danced and they drank and they thought it was love And they prayed and they thanked the great lord up above For the money he gave them the sex and the booze The American dream in which no one can lose And they didnt stop singing with tears in their eyes Their mouths filled with chocolate and strawberry pies They were all so excited, they were all very dumb They had chosen to party the day they dropped the bomb
