Lyrics
No one can deny that these are difficult times
No one can deny that these are difficult times
It's the US versus USSR
Yet we more or less are
No one can deny that these are difficult times
To our credit, putting all that aside
We have swallowed our pride
These are very dangerous and difficult times
It really doesn't matter who comes on top
Who gets the chop
No one's way of life is threatened by a flop
But we're going to smash their bastard
Make him wanna change his name
Take him to the cleaners and devastate him
Wipe him out, humiliate him
We don't want the whole world saying
"They can't even win a game"
We have never reckoned on coming second
There's no use in losing
It's the red flag up against stars and stripes
But we're peace-loving types
No one can deny that these are difficult times
It's a sweet hail-fellow-well-met affair
For both eagle and bear
These are very dangerous and difficult times
To those that say that this is not a friendly clash
Don't be so rash
I assure you, comrades, that is balderdash
What a load of whining peasants
Thinking they can win, they can't
What an exhibition of self-delusion
This one's a foregone conclusion
But enough of all this beating
'Round the bushes of detente
We intend to collar the Yankee dollar
We shall thrash them, trash them
How good to feel that as this great event begins
It underpins
Our quest for peace that sponsors common interest
Of East and West
As long as our man wins
As long as our man wins
