Laurie Anderson - Night in Baghdad lyrics

And, oh, it's so beautiful
It's like the Fourth of July
It's like a Christmas tree
It's like the fireflies on a summer night

And I wish I could describe
This to you better
But, I can't talk very well now
'Cause, I've got this damned gas mask on
So I'm just going to stick
This microphone out the window
And see if we can hear
A little better hello California?
What's the weather like out there now?
And I only have one question: Did
You ever really love me?
Only when we danced and it was so beautiful
It was like the Fourth of July
It was like fireflies on a summer night
