[00:01.65]Prime Time
[00:03.46]Well this is life, this is Prime time
[00:05.39]This is livin' in the U. S. A.
[00:08.45]Well this is life, this is Prime Time
[00:12.38]This is livin' the American way
[00:16.06]I was ridin' on the subway in the afternoon
[00:20.12]I saw some kids 'a beatin' out a funky tune
[00:23.86]The lady right in front of me was old and brown
[00:27.42]The kids began to push her, they knocked her down
[00:31.35]I tried to help her out but there was just no way
[00:34.78]A life ain't worth a damn on the street today
[00:38.09]I passed the ambulance and the camera crews
[00:42.08]I saw the instant replay on the evening news
[00:45.70]Well this is life, this is Prime time
[00:49.63]This is livin' in the U. S. A.
[00:53.13]Well this is life, this is Prime Time
[00:57.00]This is livin' the American way
[01:00.87]Well will you take the car, or will you take the trip?
[01:04.74]Remove annoying hair from your upper lip
[01:08.42]What's it really worth? Does she really care?
[01:11.91]What's the best shampoo that I can use on my hair?
[01:16.09]Hey what's the real future of democracy?
[01:19.40]How're we gonna streamline the bureaucracy?
[01:22.89]Hey, hey, the cost of life has gone sky-high
[01:26.58]Does the deodorant I'm using really keep me dry?
[01:30.20]Well this is life, this is Prime time
[01:34.31]This is livin' in the U. S. A.
[01:37.93]Well this is life, this is Prime Time
[01:41.87]This is livin' the American way
[01:53.78]Well spin the magic wheel and try to break the bank
[01:57.21]Think about your life when you fill in the blank
[02:00.84]Here's a game that's real if you wanna try
[02:04.45]One spot on the wheel that says you must die
[02:09.88]American roulette is the game we play
[02:13.62]But no-one wants to have to be the one to pay
[02:18.49]You get to pass "GO", you get to pass away
[02:22.18]But before we start our show, here's our sponsor to say:
[02:25.61]"Well this is life, this is Prime time
[02:27.73]This is livin' in the U. S. A.
[02:29.60]Well this is life, this is Prime time
[02:33.41]This is livin' in the U. S. A.
[02:35.97]Well this is life, this is Prime Time
[02:38.09]This is livin' the American way"
[02:39.71]Well down in Mexico, the laundry's on the line
[02:42.21]There's where you can go if you land on the nine
[02:45.08]Canada is nice if you're fond of ice
[02:47.20]If you land on the two then we'll send you there twice
[02:50.44]We interrupt this game for a news release:
[02:52.63]A man has gone insane and been killed by police!
[02:55.25]Now back to the game, that's a dangerous play
[02:57.68]'Cause if they see you in C-U-B-A you must pass away
[03:00.49]Well this is life, this is Prime time
[03:02.43]This is livin' in the U. S. A.
[03:04.42]Well this is life, this is Prime Time
[03:06.29]This is livin' the American way
[03:07.85]My supper's on the stove, the war is on the screen
[03:10.54]Pass the bread and butter while I watch the Marine
[03:12.91]The shot him in the chest--Pass the chicken breast!
[03:15.03]The general is saying that he's still unimpressed.
[03:16.78]"We had to burn the city 'cause they wouldn't agree
[03:19.27]That things go better with democracy!"
[03:20.71]The weather will be fair, forget the ozone layer,
[03:23.02]But strontium showers will be here and there
[03:24.95]Well this is life, this is Prime time
[03:26.82]This is livin' in the U. S. A.
[03:28.76]Well this is life, this is Prime Time
[03:30.57]This is livin' the American way
[03:31.88]Well livin' in the country watchin' shadows fall
[03:33.81]My reception ain't too good in a power stall
[03:35.68]Bombers in the air, missiles in the sea
[03:37.68]Chemicals in everything, including me
[03:38.74]They don't keep their promise in the promised land
[03:40.86]It's getting mighty hard to find an honest man
[03:43.36]But coming very soon, a show you'll die to see
[03:46.98]It's called "The End Of The World", on channel "C"
[03:50.66]Well this is life, this is Prime time
[03:54.28]This is livin' in the U. S. A.
[03:57.77]Well this is life, this is Prime time
[04:01.83]This is livin' in the U. S. A.
[04:04.20]Well this is life, this is Prime Time
[04:07.82]This is livin' the American way
