• America's Son

Cal:
Profile, cunning
Wardrobe, stunning
Top of his game!
Wise adherents
Sharp appearance
And oh, that fam'ly name!

He's riding the spotlight!
See him!
He's ready and poised to run
He's riding the spotlight!
See him!
Where he belongs...!
Where he's the one...!

Chorus:
America's son
Rising
America's son
Sizing up the stage
Rising to
A brand-new age
Rising, America's son

Cal & Violet:
Thoughts reflected
Speech perfected
He's got it down
Aristocratic
Charismatic
And oh, that fam#ly crown!

Chorus:
America's son
Rising
America's son
Sizing up the stage
Rising to
A brand-new age
Rising

Grahame:
Now, Cal, you are going to limit yourself to three topics.

Leslie Pynchon:
And only three.

Grahame:
The public can digest no more.

The economy...
Crime...
Taxes...
Say it with me.

Grahame & Cal:
The economy...
Crime...
Taxes...

Grahame:
Very good. They're safe, you see. Not too extreme, not too abstract. You must stay away from big words.

Cal:
Cool.

Grahame:
Yes. Well. I didn't think that would be a problem. Now...

The economy!

Cal:
The economy!

Grahame:
The economy!

Cal:
Yes, I know, Grahame...

Grahame:
Every time you hear that word
You think
You say
The following things...

Assistants:
Steady growth
Lower interest

Grahame:
Stay within your theme

Assistants:
Save our jobs!
Save our jobs!

Grahame & Leslie:
Nothing too abstract
Nothing too extreme

Cal & Assistants:
Nothing too abstract
Nothing too extreme

Grahame:
Perfect. You have to keep your clientele happy, you know.

Leslie:
The happier they are, the more power you wield.

Grahame:
It's called the upper hand. Now...

Crime!

Cal:
Crime!

Grahame:
Crime!

Cal:
Heard you the first time...

Grahame:
Every time you hear that word
You think
You say
The following things...

Assistants:
Three strikes
Life sentance

Grahame:
Stay within your theme

Assistants:
Save the children!
Save the children!

Grahame & Leslie:
Nothing too abstract
Nothing too extreme

+ Cal & Assistants:
Nothing too abstract
Nothing too extreme

Grahame:
Excellent. Anytime you're asked about crime, you spit those words out.

Leslie:
Three times if possible

Grahame:
The rule is three

Cal:
What if I forget?

Leslie:
Don't.

Grahame:
And don't let yourself get thrown. The upper hand, my boy. You have to keep the upper hand.

Cal:
You say that a lot.

Grahame:
Nothing more important than the upper hand.

Now on to taxes!

Cal:
Taxes

Grahame:
Yes taxes!

Cal:
This is getting boring, Grahame...

Grahame:
Ev'rytime you hear that word
You think
You say
The following things -

Prudent tax cuts
Modest reductions
Pork barrel
State waste
Unnecessary
Programs
Must unite
To buck the trend
Government
Spending has to end

Now say it with me -

Modest reductions
Pork barrel
State waste
Unnecessary
Programs
Must unite
To buck the trend
Government
Spending has to end

Grahame:
Once more.

Cal & Assistants: (as one part)
Prudent tax cuts
Modest reductions
Pork barrel
State waste
Unnecessary
Programs
Must unite
To buck the trend
Government
Spending has to end

Grahame & Leslie: (as the second part)
Keep it
Good and tight
Stay within
Your theme
Nothing
Too abstract, Cal
Nothing
Too ex
