Energy Crisis ’74 Lyrics by Dickie Goodman

0

We're here at the White House
For a special report on the Energy Crisis
Mr. President, have you any statement?
(Leave me alone, just leave me alone)
Mr. President, what really caused the Energy Crisis?
(Smokin' in the boy's room)
During the crisis, how much gas will motorists be allowed?
(Just enough for the city)
Who do you believe the gas shortage will affect most?
(Helen, Helen Wheels)
Mr. President, the crisis must be solved
What do you intend to do?
(Keep on playin' those mind games)
With me now is the head of the Federal Energy Office
Sir, you hold an important position
What are your qualifications?
(I'm a joker, I'm a smoker, I'm a midnight toker)
Mr. President, have you anything to add?
(Leave me alone, just leave me alone)
Here with me is the new Vice President, Chevy Ford
Sir, how would you sum up the gas shortage?
(Goodbye yellow brick road)
We have a long distance call from Saudi Arabia
King Faisal, is that you?
(Hello, it's me)
King Faisal, what are your thoughts when you look out at all those oil wells?
(You're beautiful and you're mine)
I have Golda Meir of Israel on the other phone
What should I tell her?
(Won't you tell her that I love her)
Mr. President, have you any added comment?
(Leave me alone, just leave me alone)
Mr. President, the American people are waiting
Have you a statement?
(I'm on the top of the world, lookin' down on creation)
We'd like to continue this record on the Energy Crisis
But we have just run out of energy
Credits
