Angola

Lyrics for Angola

(Puerta-Pack) I was living in Angola, Reading in the paper 'Bout the new depression Got the States upset Still, I just can't see How only one TV And two slightly used cars Causes such regrets In this country such as ours, If we had these things, We would either be European Or descend from kings Oh! Sometimes, you know, I hunger for more than food, For more than the shelter From the cold monsoons I'd like swimmin' pools And refrigerated air And an extra room to spare (No more ten to a room), And a thinking color set With a close-up zoom But in this country such as ours, If we had these things, We'd be a U.N. delegation Or a visiting queen Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah And you remember well The day when old Wall Street fell And do you fear it again? Still there is one major difference In just how we see some things What you call poor we call prosperity Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Ooh! Sometimes, you know, I hunger for more than food, For more than the shelter From the cold monsoons I'd like swimmin' pools And refrigerated air And an extra room to spare (No more ten to a room), And a thinking color set With a close-up zoom But in this country such as ours, If we had these things, We'd be a U.N. delegation Or a visiting queen Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Oh Living in Angola ...
