one hundred years from now

title fights and human rights

go drum go dance sound on sound

all this peace and understanding

go drum go dance round and round

in America yeeooo ay da yeeooo ah



a pocket full of posies

and cheap scented roses

every house should have it's hat on

so in and out and round and round,

up and down and lost and found

hey ah ha!



magazines and gasoline

and made-in-Taiwan western scenes

will you hear us in the heart of America?

ya da dee yeh - yeh ee oh

in America

urelei USA

for America



where's the peace and understanding?

go drum go dance sound on sound

all this peace and understanding

go drum go dance round and round
