Key:

Intro :

I am a lonely visitor.

I ca me too late to cause a stir

though I ca mpaigned all my li fe towards that go al.

I hardly slept the ni ght you wept;

o ur secret's safe and s till well kept

w here even Richard Nixon has got so ul.

E ven Richard Nixon has got so ul.

Traf fic cops are all color blind.

Pe ople steal from their own kind.

Eve ning comes to ea rly for a str oll.

Down neon streets the str eaker streaks.

T he speaker speaks but the tr uth still leaks

wh ere even Richard Nixon has got so ul.

Th e podium rocks in the crowded waves.

Th e speaker talks of the beautiful saves

th at went down long b efore he played this r ole

for the hotel queens and the ma gazines

te st tube genes and sl ot machines

whe re even Richard Nixon has g ot it so ul.

Ho spitals have made him cry

bu t there's always a free way in his eye

th ough his beach just got too cro wded for his st roll.

Roads stretch out like hea lthy veins

a nd wild gift horses st rain the reins

wh ere even Richard Nixon has got so ul.

E ven Richard Nixon has got so ul.

I am a lonely visitor.

I came too late to cause a stir

th ough I campaigned all my li fe towards that go al.
