Prime Time |
| Well this is life, this is Prime time |
| This is livin' in the U. S. A. |
| Well this is life, this is Prime Time |
| This is livin' the American way |
| I was ridin' on the subway in the afternoon |
| I saw some kids 'a beatin' out a funky tune |
| The lady right in front of me was old and brown |
| The kids began to push her, they knocked her down |
| I tried to help her out but there was just no way |
| A life ain’t worth a damn on the street today |
| I passed the ambulance and the camera crews |
| I saw the instant replay on the evening news |
| Well this is life, this is Prime time |
| This is livin' in the U. S. A. |
| Well this is life, this is Prime Time |
| This is livin' the American way |
| Well will you take the car, or will you take the trip? |
| Remove annoying hair from your upper lip |
| What’s it really worth? |
| Does she really care? |
| What’s the best shampoo that I can use on my hair? |
| Hey what’s the real future of democracy? |
| How’re we gonna streamline the bureaucracy? |
| Hey, hey, the cost of life has gone sky-high |
| Does the deodorant I’m using really keep me dry? |
| Well this is life, this is Prime time |
| This is livin' in the U. S. A. |
| Well this is life, this is Prime Time |
| This is livin' the American way |
| Well spin the magic wheel and try to break the bank |
| Think about your life when you fill in the blank |
| Here’s a game that’s real if you wanna try |
| One spot on the wheel that says you must die |
| American roulette is the game we play |
| But no-one wants to have to be the one to pay |
| You get to pass «GO», you get to pass away |
| But before we start our show, here’s our sponsor to say: |
