When the middle class breaks up
The working class better wake up
When America was dreamin'
Some thief's stole our country
Lulu stands by her family
With harmony and history
There's two kinds of stories
Either comedy or tragedy
Lulu works all day long
She goes nine to five just to stay alive
She'll do anything just to walk the line
There ain't no time to wine and dine
War time now in the USA
And her husband goes far away
Afghanistan to Iraq
Her husband now ain't comin' back
America the beautiful, that's what the sign says
I welcome every single one 'cause I want them all to stay
And I'll travel till my very last day
To the New York harbor to the San Francisco Bay
Lyrics from the official booklet:
Lulu Aaa Lulu Aaa
