crawling to the u.s.a.
I thought I would go to the sea and shrink down very tiny And slide inside the telephone wire that runs under the briny Till I found there is a way of crawling to the U.S.A. You had better not go too far There's one way out, there's only one way Leave your mother and your father Crawling to the U.S.A. Saw it late one night on a secret channel It's farther on along the tunnel It's way beyond the final station That's the one they never mention You had better not go too far There's one way out, there's only one way Leave your mother and your father Crawling to the U.S.A. You don't have to pay them that much You had better bring your lunch It's undercover, around the houses Up your skirt and down your trousers You had better not go too far There's one way out, there's only one way Leave your mother and your father Crawling to the U.S.A. She said, "I catch you taking liberties and they do not impress me Attach me to your credit card and then you can undress me Everybody is on their knees except the Russians and the Chinese You had better not go too far There's one way out, there's only one way Leave your mother and your father.
