Another beautiful morning under stars and bars • And F series
pickups and rusted out cars • And they`re eating breakfast at
the strip bar • Just to have a peek… • And the beer soaked angels
spread their wings • And dream of twenties and diamonds and things
• And somehow that might ease the sting • Of the company they
keep • Yeah… • And the vets still talk about the tet offensive
• And the freshmen boys all look so pensive • Because living
large is so expensive • Hope daddy fueled the jet… • And we`ll
all fly out to the Hard Rock casino • And we`ll put on our neatly
pressed and fine chinos • And we`ll laugh at the guy in the El
Camino • Is that the only car he could get? • It`s a beautiful
life • It`s just as advertised • It`s all for one low price •
Just read the fine print, and you`ll be content • With your beautiful
life • And record smoothies say "What a sound" • You`re
the greatest thing we`ve found • But you`re gonna have to lose
a few pounds • We`re gonna put you on TV •
And don`t think our place is so swank • Don`t worry about that
guy, he`s high on crank • That`s exactly why his last record
tanked • And let that be a lesson to me • Chorus • And all our
churches glow • Communion wafers trash TV shows • Say "Hey,
at least you don`t have this strife" • `Cause you`ll be
warm and safe • In your beautiful life • Yeah…• And it`s hard
to tell what`s true compassion • When it`s dressed up in hair
and nails and fashion • And the tabloids all rush to cash in
on what we should believe • And I hope I never see the day •
When there`s nothing left on the planet left to save • And oxygen
is the designer crusade • As we all fight to breathe…• Chorus
