A devastating backstroke
All the way from France
With shiny, shiny cufflinks
A shirtsleeve to enhance
The pin-striped men of morning Are coming forward to dance With pure Egyptian cotton The kids don't stand a chance

You criticize the practice By murdering their plans Ignoring all the history Denying them romance The pin-striped men of morning Are coming forward to dance Forty-million dollars The kids don't stand a chance

I didn't like the business, But that was at first glance Your pillow feels so soft now But still you must advance The pin-striped men of morning The partners in the dance The paper's shot to pieces The kids don't stand a chance
