Ambrosia - Angola lyrics

(Puerta-Pack)

I was living in Angola,

Reading in the paper

'Bout the new depression

Got the States upset

Still, I just can't see

How only one TV

And two slightly used cars

Causes such regrets

In this country such as ours,

If we had these things,

We would either be European

Or descend from kings

Oh! Sometimes, you know,

I hunger for more than food,

For more than the shelter

From the cold monsoons

I'd like swimmin' pools

And refrigerated air

And an extra room to spare

(No more ten to a room),

And a thinking color set

With a close-up zoom

But in this country such as ours,

If we had these things,

We'd be a U.N. delegation

Or a visiting queen

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

And you remember well

The day when old Wall Street fell

And do you fear it again?

Still there is one major difference

In just how we see some things

What you call poor we call prosperity

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Ooh! Sometimes, you know,

I hunger for more than food,

For more than the shelter

From the cold monsoons

I'd like swimmin' pools

And refrigerated air

And an extra room to spare

(No more ten to a room),

And a thinking color set

With a close-up zoom

But in this country such as ours,

If we had these things,

We'd be a U.N. delegation

Or a visiting queen

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh Living in Angola ...
