Harry Chapin - On the Road to Kingdom Come слова песни
The Smoke Witch says - Wahoo!And the Wise Man says - Me too!And the Guru says - Wazoo!So do what you do!The priests stand in their pulpitsThe Pope sits on his throneThe parishes are emptyThe choirboys on their ownUntil the Second ComingThey`re leaving us aloneAnd God in his HeavenHas decided to keep mumCause He`s just another travellerOn the Road to Kingdom Come.Pity Mr. PresidentHe can`t do a thingHe says everywhere he wentWe tried to make him singOur lonely White House residentSays we should have made him KingMaybe then he could have saved usFrom the truth we were hiding fromBut he was just another travellerOn the Road to Kingdom Come.The General`s in the game roomBut his Soldier won`t saluteEver since he was promotedHe can`t pop his chuteHis shrink says he is paranoid`Bout communistic rootsSo unfurl the flag boysStart beating his drumYes we`ve got to get another stragglerOn the Road to Kingdom Come.Wow! The lead Singers raucousAs he screams out the truthThen the band hold a caucusAnd decides to sell their youthOur Manager will hawk usAs along as we`re uncouthWe`ll call it revolutionBut we`ll crank out Bubble GumCan`t you see we`re all just travellersOn the Road to Kingdom Come.Grampa swung into the orgyIt was his last hopeHe was dressed to the ninesIn deodorant and ScopeHe found him a womanShe brought Vaseline and soapWell it started out excitingBut it ended up ho humShe said - I thought that you could take meAll the way to Kingdom Come.So Billy sells hot sermonsAnd cold wars through the mailsWhile Mr. Big is selling outHis business never failsKing Kennedy like Chaucer`sChasing Canterbury TalesAnd my brain is still a virginThough the rest of me`s well doneAnd I know we`re all just travellersOn the Road to Kingdom ComeWhen all is said and doneJust another one.
