Lyrics

Here they come

Slumming their way outta the jacuzzi

Well, I've lived in a slum, sugar plum

Hit and run

And it did not amuse me

There they go

Moving around on the radio

Well I've been on that show

Reap and sow, feed and grow

And it did not amuse me

Hey citizen! hey american!

Hey russian! hey citizen!

Beauty stab

When the good things in life

Have all grown bad

The cat's out the bag

Smash and grab, burn the flag

And didn't it fool me throw it out

It's not worth the paper it's written on

No ifs and buts

Spending cuts, cheaper smut

They say they could use me

All through summer

There's no glamour in the slammer

No glamour in the slammer

Until you make a run

All through summer, the splendours

Pretty slender

The splendours pretty slender

Until you make a run

Here they come

Slumming their way out of the jacuzzi

Well I've lived in a slum, sugar plum

Hit and run and it did not amuse me

There they go

Grooving around on the radio

Well I've been on that show, reap and sow

Feed and grow, and it didn't amuse me

Hey villager! hey citizen!

Hey countryman! hey, now listen!

Hey chinaman! hey european!

Hey russian! hey american!

Hey cowboy! hey indian!

Hey anyway! hey, hey, hey citizen!
