Lyrics
I can't keep up with what's been going down
I think my heart must just be slowing down
Among the human beings, in their designer jeans
Am I the only one who hears the screams?
And the strangled cries of lawyers in love
God sends his spaceships to America, the beautiful
They land at six o'clock and there we are, the dutiful
Eating from TV trays, tuned into Happy Days
Waiting for world war three while Jesus slaves
To the mating calls of lawyers in love
Ooh-sha-la-la-ooh
Ooh-sha-la-la-ooh
(Ah-oh), ooh-sha-la-la-ooh
Ooh-sha-la-la-ooh
Last night I watched the news from Washington, the Capitol
The Russians escaped while we weren't watching them
Like Russians will
Now we've got all this room, we've even got the moon
And I hear the U.S.S.R will be open soon
As vacation land for lawyers in love
Lawyers in love
Ooh-sha-la-la-ooh
Ooh-sha-la-la-ooh
(Ah-oh), ooh-sha-la-la-ooh
Ooh, sha lala ooo ooh
(Ah-oh)
Lawyers in love
