Third World Man — текст песни (Steely Dan)

Johnnys playroom

Is a bunker filled with sand

Hes become a third world man

Smoky sunday

Hes been mobilized since dawn

Now hes crouching on the lawn

Hes a third world man



Soon youll throw down your disguise

Well see behind those bright eyes

By and by

When the sidewalks are safe

For the little guy



I saw the fireworks

I believed that I was dreaming

Till the neighbors came out screaming

Hes a third world man



Soon youll throw down your disguise

Well see behind those bright eyes

By and by

When the sidewalks are safe

For the little guys



When hes crying out

I just sing that ghana rondo

E lera del terzo mondo

Hes a third world man
