  • 作词 : John, Taupin
    作曲 : Elton John & Bernie Taupin
    We heard Richard Nixon say,
    welcome to the USA

    The common sense I sometimes lack

    Has opened up a seismic crack

    We've fallen in and I can't pull back

    And I guess we'll have to stay

    In open arms we put our trust
    they put us on a big red bus
    Twin spirits soaking up a dream

    Fuel to feed the press machine

    After years that were long and lean

    We're finally on our way

    And Richard Nixon's on his knees

    he's sent so many overseas
    He'd like to know if you and
    me could help him in some way

    A little camouflage and glue
    to mask the evil that men do

    A small diversion caused by two,

    pale kids come to play

    And we heard Richard Nixon say

    "welcome to the USA"

    Neither of us understood the way
    things ticked in Hollywood

    We just loaded in and grabbed the bat

    With little room to swing a cat

    And pretty soon we were where it's at
    Or so the papers say

    And all around us suntanned teens,
    beauty like we'd never seen

    Our heroes led us by the hand
    Through Brian Wilson's promised land

    Where Disney's God and he commands

    Both mice and men to stay

    And Richard Nixon's on his knees

    he's sent so many overseas
    He'd like to know if you and
    me could help him in some way

    A little camouflage and glue
    to mask the evil that men do

    A small diversion caused by two,

    pale kids come to play

    And we heard Richard Nixon say

    "welcome to the USA"

    In a bright red Porsche on Sunset

    I saw Steve McQueen

    I guess he's just about the coolest

    guy I've ever seen

    And for you and me that speeding
    car is how it's going to be

    I see no brakes just open road
    and lots of gasoline

    Oh we heard Richard Nixon say,

    welcome to the USA

    The common sense I sometimes lack
    Has opened up a seismic crack

    We've fallen in and I can't pull back

    Pale kids come to play

    And we heard Richard Nixon say,

    I've gotta go but you can stay

    Pale kids come to play

    And we heard Richard Nixon say,

    I've gotta go but you can stay
