Lyrics ABC – Hey Citizen!

Here they come
Slumming their way outta the Jacuzzi
Well, I’ve lived in a slum, sugar plum
Hit and run

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!
