Perfect Sense, Part II

Can't you see
It all makes perfect sense
Expressed in dollars and cents
Pounds shillings and pence
Can't you see
It all makes perfect sense
Little black soul departs in perfect focus
Prime time fodder for the News at Nine
Darling is the child warm in the bed tonight

Hi everybody I'm Marv Albert
and welcome to our telecast
coming to you live from Memorial Stadium.
It's a beautiful day
and today we expect a sensational matchup.
But first our global anthem.

Can't you see
It all makes perfect sense
Expressed in dollars and cents
Pounds shillings and pence
Can't you see
It all makes perfect sense

And here come the players.
As I speak to you now the captain
has his cross hairs zeroed in on the oil rig.
It looks to me like he's going to attack.
By the way did you know that a submarine
captain earns 200,000 dollars a year.
Oh that's less tax Marv yeah less tax.
Uh thank you Emery you're welcome.
Now back to the game he fires one yes
there goes two both fish are running.
The rig is going into a prevent defense.
Will they make it? I don't think so.

Can't you see
It all makes perfect sense
Expressed in dollars and cents
Pounds shillings and pence
Can't you see
It all makes perfect sense
