Chorus:
 D MajorD
 Ohhh why don't we all just get stoned,
   G+G              D MajorD
get drunk and sing beer drinking songs
                 D MajorD
Between Breshneff and Fagan, Khomeini and Ragen
   A7A7          G+G
We might as well all just get stoned.

Verse 1:
D MajorD
You can't even look at T.V. these days
                A7A7
Without getting scared half to death

The eye witness news leaves me used and abused
              D MajorD
I find myself gasping for breath

Verse 2:
D MajorD
There's strikes and inflation and strife between nations
              G+G
The worlds in a hell of a mess
                  D MajorD
But no matter who's hurt'n there's one thing for certain
   A7A7             D MajorD
The whole world will blame the U.S.

Chorus:

 Ohhh why don't we all just get stoned,

The Russians don't like us and we don't like them

The Israelis hate the Arabs

Iran and Iraq are on each others backs

and Al Salvador's still up for grabs

Verse 4:
D MajorD
I wish they'd take Eiddie, Ahlmene and Khomeini
              G+G
and Kadofe and all of the rest
                     D MajorD
Tie them all up to a chair and make them stare at Yasser Arafat
     A7A7            D MajorD
till he ugly'd the whole bunch to death

Lord if the commie's don't take us

Reaganomics will break us, we don't have a chance either way.
