Electric Six - Jimmy Carter lyrics

Like Jimmy Carter, like electric underwear
Like any idea that never had
A chance to go anywhere
This is who you are, a paid celebrity
Who drives off a bridge in a car
Your beautiful body filling up with water

Like Harry Truman dropping bombs
Out of the air
Like any self-respecting multi-billionaire
This is who you are
Five dancing teenage boys
Who sing their way into our hearts
Backstreet's back, alright

And there's a toxic cloud hanging over
And there's white noise on the screen
And there's a man in a hotel room
Assaulting a maid who just came
To clean up the mess
Backstreet's back, alright

Like Ronald Reagan falling
Asleep forever more
Dreaming of horses and dreaming
Of nuclear war this is where we are tonight
Everybody under surveillance from a satellite
You can be the first one on your block to die

And there's a plague of locusts upon us
And there's a nightmare in the swarm
And there's a lion out in the desert
Slouching towards Bethlehem to be born again
Backstreet's back, alright alright
