You’re on your way back home in a brand new station wagon[00:00:00]
(A Child's View Of) The Eisenhower Yearsn - Al Stewart[00:00:00]
A pile of rolling chrome ten miles to the gallon[00:00:05]
Your mother puts her makeup on you watch her crunch the gears[00:00:11]
It’s a child’s view of the Eisenhower years[00:00:19]
Your father knows what’s best no one to upstage him[00:00:24]
He thinks he’s so well dressed finds new things to outrage him[00:00:30]
Elvis on the television G I s in Korea[00:00:36]
It’s a child’s view of the Eisenhower years[00:00:44]
I don’t mind the innocence so much[00:00:48]
In fact it’s charming[00:00:54]
The comedians have got a certain touch[00:00:56]
That’s quite disarming[00:00:59]
Even though the aliens from space[00:01:02]
Haunt the weekend matinees[00:01:06]
Super heroes keep the citizenry safe[00:01:09]
There’s a beep in the sky in 1957[00:01:13]
A metal ball that flies through Soviet heaven[00:01:18]
Papers shout the headlines politicians fan the fears[00:01:24]
It’s a child’s view of the Eisenhower years[00:01:32]
I don’t mind the innocence so much[00:01:36]
In fact it’s charming[00:02:06]
And the girls in their hoop skirts[00:02:08]
Have got a style that quite disarming[00:02:11]
Even thought the neighborhood is new[00:02:14]
Everybody looks like you[00:02:19]
At the soda fountain and the schoolyard too[00:02:21]
See the baseball fly out across the diamond[00:02:26]
Jimmy Jones and I we’ve both got good timing[00:02:31]
To be born into a greased back world [00:02:37]
All hips and teenage sneers[00:02:42]
It’s a child’s view of the Eisenhower years[00:02:44]
