Perfect Sense, part II
Roger Waters
Can't you see
It all makes perfect sense
Expressed in dollars and cents
Pounds shillings and pence
Can't you see
It all makes perfect sense
Little black soul departs in perfect focus (hold on soldier)
Prime time fodder for the news at nine (hold on, hold on soldier)
Darling is the child warm in the bed tonight
(Hi everybody I'm Marv Albert
And welcome to our telecast
Coming to you live from memorial stadium
It's a beautiful day
And today we expect a sensational matchup
But first our global anthem).
Can't you see
It all makes perfect sense
Expressed in dollars and cents
Pounds shillings and pence
Can't you see
It all makes perfect sense.
(And here come the players
As I speak to you now the captain
Has his cross hairs zeroed in on the oil rig
It looks to me like he's going to attack
By the way did you know that a submarine
Captain earns 200.000 dollars a year
Oh, that's less tax marv yes less tax
Uh, thank you, Emery, you're welcome
Now back to the game he fires one yes
There goes two both fish go running
The rig is going into a prevent defense
Will they make it? I don't think so)
Can't you see
It all makes perfect sense
Expressed in dollars and cents
Pounds shillings and pence
Can't you see
It all makes perfect sense
Can't you see
It all makes perfect sense
