Angola

I was living in Angola
Reading in the paper
About the new depression
Got the States upset
Still, I just can't see
How only one TV
And two slightly used cars
Causes such regrets
In this country such as ours
If we had these things
We would either be European
Or descend from kings
Ooo, sometimes, you know
I hunger for more than food
For more than the shelter
From the cold monsoons
I'd like swimming pools
And refrigerated air
And an extra room to spare
No more ten to a room
And a thinking color set
With a close-up zoom
But in this country such as ours
If we had these things
We'd be a U.N. delegation
Or a visiting queen
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And you remember well
The day when old Wall Street fell
And do you fear it again?
Still there is one major difference
In just how we see some things
What you call poor we call prosperity
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooo, sometimes, you know
I hunger for more than food
For more than the shelter
From the cold monsoons
I'd like swimming pools
And refrigerated air
And an extra room to spare
No more ten to a room
And a thinking color set
With a close-up zoom
But in this country such as ours
If we had these things
We'd be a U.N. delegation
Or a visiting queen
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh living in Angola
I'm just living in Angola
I said, "Living in Angola." (Living in Angola)
