Good Time Charlie

[Verse 1]

Like all great pornography, this story is touching

It's somethin' that I wanna see

(Black and gold tile, champagne flute)

Good time Charlie

(Sauna water dirtying the birthday suits)

(Sauna water dirtying the birthday suits)

Charlie says, "Turn up that TV, there's somethin' I wanna see"

In Vegas, the topless genuflect in the jacuzzi

(Five o'clock shadow, desert landscape)

Good time Charlie

(The party politician has a hero's face)

(Fight the red army, save the human race)

[Chorus]

Congressman and goldenrod

Will weaponize the forgotten

Because they say we worship the same god

[Verse 2]

He's an implacable machine

Got a woman naked on the mezzanine

A lady in waitin' but Charlie, the mujahideen

And Joanne, your queen

Good time Charlie

(Helen of Troy, your helicopter lands)

(An honor is to serve at your command)

[Chorus]

Congressman and goldenrod

Will weaponize the forgotten

Because they say we worship the same god

Congressman and goldenrod

Will weaponize the forgotten

Because they say we worship the same god

The same god

[Bridge]

Years from now, he's gonna be

Half-drunk in this office on fine whiskey

Do you cry for Joanna or Afghanistan, Charlie?

Contrition is a great American, Charlie

[Chorus]

Congressman and goldenrod

Will weaponize the forgotten

Because they say we worship the same god

Congressman and goldenrod

Will weaponize the forgotten

Because they say we worship the same god

The same god

[Outro]

Good versus evil of stories we tell

We're the only ones who never, ever go to hell

It's not the kind of stock and trade we sell

The Hollywood and entertaining kinds of pell-mell

The Hollywood and entertaining kinds of pell-mell

The Hollywood and entertaining kinds of pell-mell

The Hollywood and entertaining kinds of pell-mell
