Lyrics and chords:
Intro: E, E, E, EEG
Sixteen military wives
AE
Thirty-two softly focused brightly colored eyes
EG
Staring at the natural tan
AE
Of thirty-two gently clenching wrinkled little hands
AB
Seventeen company men
C#DA
Out of which only twelve will make it back again
EG
Seargeant sent a letter to five
AE
Military wives, his tears drip down to ten little eyes
B
Cheer them on to their rivals
AEAEB
Cause America can, and America can't say no
AEAEB
And America does, if America says it's so
B
It's so
( D O N T P L A Y H E R E )
And the anchorperson on TV goes
E
La de da de da
EG
Fifteen celebrity mimes
AE
Leaving their fifteen sorted wretched checkered lives
EG
Will they find the solution in time
AE
Using their fifteen pristine moderate liberal minds
AB
Eighteen academy chairs
C#DA
Out of which only seven really even care
EG
Doling out a garment to five
AE
Celebrity mimes, they're humbly taken by surprise
B
Cheer them on to their rivals
AEAEB
Cause America can, and America can't say no
AEAEB
And America does, if America says it's so
B
It's so
( D O N T P L A Y H E R E )
And the anchorperson on TV goes
E
La de da de da de di de di de da
E
La de da de da de di de di de da
Bridge: E, G, A, E, E, G, A, EAB
Fourteen cannibal kings
C#DA
Wondering blindly what the dinner bell will bring
EG
Fifteen celebrity mimes
AE
Served on a leafy bed of sixteen military wives
B
Cheer them on to their rivals
AEAEB
Cause America can, and America can't say no
AEAEB
And America does, if America says it's so
B
It's so
( D O N T P L A Y H E R E )
And the anchorperson on TV goes
E
La de da de da de di de di de da
E
La de da de da de di de di de da
E
La de da de da de di de di de da
E
De da de da de di de di de da
E
De da de da de di de di de da
