lyrics

Her shirt displayed a random noun she did not understand
her eyes a smoking milky blue cut from a people mag
oh how her golden flowing locks
did pop in front of the backdrop
of the Hiroshima giftshop
and all my favorite brands

I winked an Aryan eye at her and said I'm in a band
she offered me a scooby-doo shaped oriental snack
I said "hey wait a minute there!
You've got a virus, don't you care??
You're being told what you should wear
by a distant evil land!!"

At that there came a blinding flash and a pointing wrinkled hand
a voice said "slow down, cowboy, this is your Uncle Sam.
You stand there holier than thou
resenting this young woman now
for not taking the conservative route
which you'd also reprimand."

I said "By god you're right there Unc! I shouldn't get so mad.
We're exporting diversity which her people don't have.
Plus, we're all children under plastic
and to realize that took something drastic
but together we can both move past it
and into Afghanistan!"
