Lyrics
Little America
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
With Lana Turner on the screen beside me
The frame is hardly filled by Orson Wells
We switch into a Fred and Ginger number
That they're dancing oh so well
Blowing the blues all night
I thought I hard someone say
Stars never fade
And everyone's dying to play
In Little America
We got a chinese Elvis painted by Norman Rockwell
His part tonight will be played by Richard Pryor
The Mason Dixon line divides
The free from all the rest so you can sell
Oklahoma
To Cinderella
From Long Island
And everyone's dying to play
In Little America
Lower your standards raise your prices
On cable TV
Pretty woman seen at the death of a salesman
All covered with cream
