We Can Have The Olympics Over At Our House

We Can Have The Olympics Over At Our House

(album: One Million Lawyers And Other Disasters - 1985)

Everybody's gonna boycott
Not a country's gonna come
If they have games at all there be going some
For the Russians have decided
That they do not like L. A.
Well, I could have told them that
I say it fifty times a day
But there is no need to panic
And there is no need to cry
We'll be running, jumping, tumbling children by and by
Did you think a little boycott
Would put good times in the soup
Did ya feel that hope was gone
And could feel the party poop
We can have the Olympics over at our house
If we use our heads it wouldn't be so hard
Put the athletes on a bus
And bring 'em over to us
We'll fire a gun and run 'em around the yard
We can have the Olympics over at our house
There'll be room for all if no one's gonna be there
And the fella with the torch
Bring it over to porch and
We'll hang it up and show the world we care
There's a basket in the driveway
Where the kids have always played
A treat for acrobats that even provides some shade
If the whole world's gonna boycott
If the whole world stays at home
You can come on over to our house
We'll have a good time on our own
We can have the Olympics over at our house
If we use our heads I know we'll have a ball
We have a pool above the ground
We think it's the nicest one around
If we shorten the races we can have 'em all
Come on and have the Olympics over at our house
We can bake and sweat and get a medal or two
Grandma says she'll hold the clock
While they run around the block
That's about the limit of what grandma can do
If we have the Olympics over at our house
We can have the whole caboodle on TV
For a neighbour down the street
Has a video that's a treat
If we mention his name he'll lend the thing to me
Come on and have the Olympics over at our house
We'll release a couple of pigeons and fire a gun
We could run a race or two
Then we'll have some barbecue
Don't you know we're gonna have a lot of fun
And as an honorary starter
We've invited Jimmy Carter
Don't you know we're gonna have a lot of fu
