Banquet Lyrics
Some get the gravy, some get the gristle
Some get the marrow bone
Some get nothing though there's plenty to spare
Some watch the paint
peel, some watch their kids grow
Some watch their stocks and bonds
Waiting for that big deal American Dream
Took my dream down by
the sea
Sailing yachts and lobster pots and sunshine
Logs and sails
and shell oil pails
Down where the waterskiers glide
Some
turn to Elvis, some turn to Africa
Some turn to rambling round
For
a clean sky and a drinking stream
Who let the greedy in ?
Who left
the needy out ?
Who made the salty sea ?
Tell them we're hungry for
a sweeter fare
Took my dream down by the sea
Sailing yachts
and lobster pots and sunshine
Logs and sails and shell oil pails
Down where the waterskiers glide
Some get the gravy, some get
the gristle
Some get the marrow bone
Some get nothing though
there's plenty to spare
Some watch the paint peel, some watch their kids
grow
Some watch their stocks and bonds
Waiting for that big deal
American Dream
