The Golden Girl of the Golden West Songtext
von The Swirling Eddies

she′s a pistol packin' mama and a bleach blond surfer queen
a highfalutin′ filly and an adolescent's fling
she was born at sutter's mill and killed up on the silver screen
she opens up her golden gate and offers us a dream

na na na na na na...

she′s a powder snow bunny and a painted desert rat
an avocado model in a boysenberry hat
she′s our buffed and sprangled banner, she's our sedentary fat
she′s hungry cold and homeless, and she's luxury′s lap

she's the golden girl of the golden west
a lipo-sucking diva with a saline chest
she′s the golden girl of the golden west
a fashion island floozy in a skin tight dress
she's the golden girl...


one man's blessing and another man′s curse
she′s an economic engine with her gears thrown in reverse
she's a double beef burger called "the double patty hearse"
she′s a napa valley vineyard selling toast and liver worse

na na na na na na...

she's a corporation raider on the sports bar beat
a giant dodging forty-niner with two athletes feet
she′s a warrior and an angel and a ram in heat
she's a drunken clipper captain with a silicon leak

na na na na na na...

she′s a bleeding heart madonna with a big electric chair
an earth shaking quaker with a fundamental flair
there's a method to her madness and a charismatic air
an orthodoxly logic in that presbytery stare

so come all you huddled masses, all you yo-yosimite sams
make a wish and pitch a penny off the mighty hoover dam
yeah and leave it all to beaver and start packin' up the van
take the california aqueduct on down to disneyland
