歌詞

Symbols of democracy, pinned up against the coast Outhouse of bureaucracy, surrounded by a moat Citizens of poverty are barely out of sight Overlords escape in the evening with people of the night Morning brings the tourists, peering eyes and rubber necks To catch a glimpse of the cowboy making the world a nervous wreck It's a mass of irony for all the world to see It's the nation's capital, it's Washington D.C. It's the nation's capital It's the nation's capital It's the nation's capital, it's Washington D.C. (mmmm-hmmm) May not have the glitter or the glamour of L.A. May not have the history or the intrigue of Pompeii But when it comes to making music, and sure enough making news People who just don't make sense and people making do Seems a ball of contradictions, pulling different ways Between the folks who come and go, and one's who've got to stay It's a mass of irony for all the world to see It's the nation's capital, it's Washington D.C. It's the nation's capital It's the nation's capital It's the nation's capital, it's Washington D.C. Seems to me, it's still in light time people knifed up on 14th street Makes me feel it's always the right time for them people showing up and coming clean Did make the one seem kind of numb It's the nation's capital It's the nation's capital It's the nation's capital, it's Washington D.C. (mmmm-hmmm) Symbols of democracy, pinned up against the coast Outhouse of bureaucracy, surrounded by a moat Citizens of poverty are barely out of sight Overlords escape in the evening with people of the night Morning come and bring the tourists, craning rubber necks Catch a glimpse of the cowboy making the world a nervous wreck It's a mass of irony for all the world to see It's the nation's capital, it's Washington D.C. It's the nation's capital It's the nation's capital It's the nation's capital, it's Washington D.C. It's the nation's capital Got you feeling capital Punishment is capital in Washington D.C.
