Good Time Charlie Songtext
von Priests

Like all great pornography, this story is touching
It′s somethin' that I wanna see
(Black and gold tile, champagne flute)
Good time Charlie (sauna water dirtying the birthday suits)
(Sauna water dirtying the birthday suits)

Charlie says, "Turn up that TV, there′s somethin' I wanna see"
In Vegas, the topless genuflect in the jacuzzi (five o'clock shadow, desert landscape)
Good time Charlie (the party politician has a hero′s face)
(Fight the red army, save the human race)

Congressman and goldenrod
Will weaponize the forgotten
Because they say we worship the same god

He′s an implacable machine
Got a woman naked on the mezzanine
A lady in waitin' but Charlie, the mujahideen and Joanne, your queen
Good time Charlie (Helen of Troy, your helicopter lands)
(An honor is to serve at your command)


Congressman and goldenrod
Will weaponize the forgotten
Because they say we worship the same god
Congressman and goldenrod
Will weaponize the forgotten
Because they say we worship the same god
The same god

Years from now, he′s gonna be
Half-drunk in his office on fine whiskey
Do you cry for Joanne or Afghanistan, Charlie?
Contrition is a great American, Charlie

Congressman and goldenrod
Will weaponize the forgotten
Because they say we worship the same god
Congressman and goldenrod
Will weaponize the forgotten
Because they say we worship the same god
The same god

Good versus evil of the stories we tell
We're the ones who never, ever go to hell
It′s not the kind of stock and trade we sell
The Hollywood and entertaining kinds of pell-mell
The Hollywood and entertaining kinds of pell-mell
The Hollywood and entertaining kinds of pell-mell
The Hollywood and entertaining kinds of pell-mell
