Little America

Steve Hackett

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
