Prime Time - Don McLean[00:00:00]

Well this is life this is Prime time[00:00:01]

This is livin' in the U S A [00:00:05]

Well this is life this is Prime Time[00:00:08]

This is livin' the American way[00:00:12]

I was ridin' on the subway in the afternoon[00:00:16]

I saw some kids 'a beatin' out a funky tune[00:00:20]

The lady right in front of[00:00:23]

Me was old and brown[00:00:25]

The kids began to push her[00:00:27]

They knocked her down[00:00:29]

I tried to help her out[00:00:31]

But there was just no way[00:00:32]

A life ain't worth a damn[00:00:34]

On the street today[00:00:36]

I passed the ambulance[00:00:38]

And the camera crews[00:00:40]

I saw the instant replay[00:00:42]

On the evening news[00:00:44]

Well this is life this is Prime time[00:00:45]

This is livin' in the U S A [00:00:49]

Well this is life this is Prime Time[00:00:53]

This is livin' the American way[00:00:56]

Well will you take the car[00:01:00]

Or will you take the trip[00:01:02]

Remove annoying hair from your upper lip[00:01:04]

What's it really worth[00:01:08]

Does she really care[00:01:10]

What's the best shampoo that[00:01:11]

I can use on my hair[00:01:13]

Hey what's the real future of democracy[00:01:15]

How're we gonna streamline the bureaucracy[00:01:19]

Hey hey the cost of life has gone sky-high[00:01:22]

Does the deodorant[00:01:26]

I'm using really keep me dry[00:01:27]

Well this is life this is Prime time[00:01:29]

This is livin' in the U S A [00:01:33]

Well this is life this is Prime Time[00:01:37]

This is livin' the American way[00:01:41]

Well spin the magic wheel[00:01:45]

And try to break the bank[00:01:47]

Think about your life[00:01:48]

When you fill in the blank[00:01:50]

Here's a game that's real if you wanna try[00:01:52]

One spot on the wheel[00:01:56]

That says you must die[00:01:58]

American roulette is the game we play[00:02:00]

But no-one wants to have to be the one to pay[00:02:03]

You get to pass "GO"[00:02:07]

You get to pass away[00:02:09]

But before we start our show[00:02:10]

Here's our sponsor to say:[00:02:12]

"Well this is life this is Prime time[00:02:14]

This is livin' in the U S A [00:02:18]

Well this is life this is Prime time[00:02:22]

This is livin' in the U S A [00:02:25]

Well this is life this is Prime Time[00:02:29]

This is livin' the American way"[00:02:33]

Well down in Mexico[00:02:36]

The laundry's on the line[00:02:38]

There's where you can go[00:02:40]

If you land on the nine[00:02:42]

Canada is nice if you're fond of ice[00:02:44]

If you land on the two[00:02:48]

Then we'll send you there twice[00:02:49]

We interrupt this game for a news release:[00:02:51]

A man has gone insane and been killed by police [00:02:55]

Now back to the game[00:02:59]

That's a dangerous play[00:03:00]

'Cause if they see you in C-U-B-A[00:03:02]

You must pass away[00:03:04]

Well this is life this is Prime time[00:03:06]

This is livin' in the U S A [00:03:09]

Well this is life this is Prime Time[00:03:13]

This is livin' the American way[00:03:17]

My supper's on the stove the war is on the screen[00:03:20]

Pass the bread and butter while I watch the Marine[00:03:24]

The shot him in the chest[00:03:28]

Pass the chicken breast[00:03:30]

The general is saying that he's still unimpressed[00:03:32]

"We had to burn the city 'cause they wouldn't agree[00:03:35]

That things go better with democracy "[00:03:39]

The weather will be fair forget the ozone layer[00:03:42]

But strontium showers will be here and there[00:03:46]

Well this is life this is Prime time[00:03:50]

This is livin' in the U S A [00:03:53]

Well this is life this is Prime Time[00:03:57]

This is livin' the American way[00:04:01]

Well livin' in the country watchin' shadows fall[00:04:04]

My reception ain't too good in a power stall[00:04:08]

Bombers in the air missiles in the sea[00:04:12]

Chemicals in everything including me[00:04:16]

They don't keep their promise in the promised land[00:04:19]

It's getting mighty hard to find an honest man[00:04:23]

But coming very soon a show you'll die to see[00:04:27]

It's called "The End Of The World" on channel "C"[00:04:30]

Well this is life this is Prime time[00:04:34]

This is livin' in the U S A [00:04:37]

Well this is life this is Prime time[00:04:41]

This is livin' in the U S A [00:04:45]

Well this is life this is Prime Time[00:04:48]

This is livin' the American way[00:04:52]
