歌曲歌詞
She threw good money after bad
She bought a ticket to America a cocacola and a magazine
But in the final reel she knew she'd see justice
Her brother stayed and played the town
He's holding up a bank like harpo marx
He's saying if I walk away right now
These walls will fall down
Not too many people remember that joke now
But in an office without windows they declared the world was flat
And decided to create a fool for the world would believe that
All for a song and dance and an edible hat
Carmen miranda won't you come home
Carmen miranda won't you come home
Won't you come home
And when the picture house closed down
There was a porno shop now that is gone
And all the things that once belonged to you belong to everyone
They know the foolish way she looked
They say why don't you speak the way she spoke
That's when I give the punchline to an old national joke
If you're a police dog where's your police badge
And if you're a cowboy where's your spurs
If you're an oilman where's your oil well
You know the ones marked his and hers
She wasn't the only one fooled by a hollywood word
Carmen miranda won't you come home
Carmen miranda won't you come home
Won't you come home
And now the weatherman predicts
That if it rains he'll blow his brains right on the air
So you all decide to tune in though
You don't know if you care
For now the news is just showbiz
They make a trivial case of every curse
And food is just like cabaret and vice versa
But in an office without windows they declared the world was flat
And decided to create a fool for the world would believe that
All for a song and dance and an edible hat
Carmen miranda won't you come home
Carmen miranda won't you come home
Carmen miranda won't you come home
Carmen miranda won't you come home
Carmen miranda won't you come home
