Letra de Hey Ho

TV's on, the favorite son
Is watchin' how the West was won
Daddy, please, a plastic gun
Get brother one for twice the fun
Little camo helmet-heads
Makin' brave and playin' dead
Missiles made of gingerbread
Dollars on the dime
[Chorus]
Hey ho, so it goes
The point of sale, the puppet show
The merchant kings of war and woe
Have turned their hands to labor
Sound out the trumpet noise
The cannons bark and jump for joy
Someone's dread and darlin' boy
Has fallen on his saber
Another world across the sea
Home for little busy bees
Sweatin' in some factory
Hurry, please, more of these
Action dolls with laser sights
Robot planes that shoot at night
Faster, kid, and get it right
They're rollin' down the line
[Chorus]
These days the spin machine
Is always on the silver screen
Secret plots and submarines
Foreign fiends and magazines
Wave the flag, watch the news
Tell us we can count on you
Mom and dad are marchin' too
Children, step in time
[Chorus]
Bring your kids and coddled pets
Bouncin' babes in bassinets
We'll play a game with tanks and jets
Better yet, bayonets!
Marchin' bands and color guards
Funerals in your own backyard
Don't forget your credit card
Johnny, hold the line
[Chorus]
