lyrics

I saw a man on Broadway Street,
He was swinging that gold tipped cane,
I saw a man on Broadway Street,
While I was looking for a place to aim

I saw a man on Broadway Street,
He wore his top hat like a crown,
I saw a man on Broadway Street,
Cocked my rifle back, and I shot him down!

I shot him down!
I shot him down!
I shot him down!

There's nothing to worry about baby sleep tight
In the land of the sweet dreams and the war pigs just keep walking
Just remember to tune into us every week night
The program is lovely we just do nothing keep talking

And anyway you cut it blood is getting spilled
world is getting smaller world is getting ill
pushers keep on shoving they will never get their fill
make you mad enough to

mad enough to kill

I saw a man on Broadway Street,
He was swinging that gold tipped cane,
I saw a man on Broadway Street,
While I was looking for a place to aim

I saw a man on Broadway Street,
He wore his top hat like a crown,
I saw a man on Broadway Street,
Cocked my rifle back, and I shot him down!

I shot him down!
I shot him down!
I shot him down!

Stockbrokers got
Deep pockets
all the more reason that they won't stop. La Di Da Da.

Big bullies got
Big bodies
All the better targets for them sling shots La Di Da Da

We Live in a dream world
We live in a dream world
We live in a dream world but tonight we'll be breaking that seal

We Live in a dream world
We live in a dream world
We live in a dream world but tonight we'll be taking what's real

I saw a man on Broadway Street,
He was swinging that gold tipped cane,
I saw a man on Broadway Street,
While I was looking for a place to aim

I saw a man on Broadway Street,
He wore his top hat like a crown,
I saw a man on Broadway Street,
Cocked my rifle back, and I...
