The Decemberists - Sixteen Military Wives lyrics

Your rating:

Sixteen military wives 

Thirty-two softly focused brightly colored eyes 

Staring at the natural tan 

Of thirty-two gently clenching wrinkled little hands 

Seventeen company men 

Out of which only twelve will make it back again 

Seargeant sent a letter to five 

Military wives, his tears drip down to ten little eye 



Cheer them on to their rivals 

Cause America can, and America can't say no 

And America does, if America says it's so 

It's so 



And the anchorperson on TV goes... 

La de da de da 



Fifteen celebrity mimes 

Leaving their fifteen sorted wretched checkered lives 

Will they find the solution in time 

Using their fifteen pristine moderate liberal minds? 



Eighteen academy chairs 

Out of which only seven really even care 

Doling out a garment to five 

Celebrity mimes, they're humbly taken by surprise 



Cheer them on to their rivals 

Cause America can, and America can't say no 

And America does, if America says it's so 

It's so 



And the anchorperson on TV goes... 

La de da de da de-dadedade-da 

La de da de da de-dadedade-da 



Fourteen cannibal kings 

Wondering blindly what the dinner bell will bring 

Fifteen celebrity mimes 

Served on a leafy bed th sixteen military wives 



Cheer them on to their rivals 

Cause America can, and America can't say no 

And America does, if America says it's so 

It's so 



And the anchorperson on TV goes... 

La de da de da de-dadedade-da 

La de da de da de-dadedade-da
