Angola Lyrics - Singles - Ambrosia

I was living in angola, 

Reading in the paper 

'Bout the new depression 

Got the states upset 

Still, I just can't see 

How only one tv 

And two slightly used cars 

Causes such regrets 

In this country such as ours, 

If we had these things, 

We would either be european 

Or descend from kings 

Oh! sometimes, you know, 

I hunger for more than food, 

For more than the shelter 

From the cold monsoons 

I'd like swimmin' pools 

And refrigerated air 

And an extra room to spare 

(no more ten to a room), 

And a thinking color set 

With a close-up zoom 

But in this country such as ours, 

If we had these things, 

We'd be a u.n. delegation 

Or a visiting queen 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 

And you remember well 

The day when old wall street fell 

And do you fear it again? 

Still there is one major difference 

In just how we see some things 

What you call poor we call prosperity 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 

Ooh! sometimes, you know, 

I hunger for more than food, 

For more than the shelter 

From the cold monsoons 

I'd like swimmin' pools 

And refrigerated air 

And an extra room to spare 

(No more ten to a room), 

And a thinking color set 

With a close-up zoom 

But in this country such as ours, 

If we had these things, 

We'd be a u.n. delegation 

Or a visiting queen 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 

Oh living in angola ...
