lyrics

Xenophobic reactions / I know you got them / I know you got them
And you find yourself living somehow / Somehow on the margin / Living
somehow
And to-night / Beauty queens flying into Miami tonight

From every state in the union / From every state in the union
Beefed up security / Working the runway tonight
Fifty silver bird / Roaring down to deliver

Promise promise / High-heeled and virginal
Touch-down coverage tonight / Cut to live action / Broadcast to every
home in the nation
Stretch Limousines / Pander the dark highways at night

Interiors / Plush with collusion
Born to the banquet / Of liquor, cold meat and fruit
Providing each / Exclusive hotel room / Xenophobic reactions

And you find yourself / On the margin / Living, living somehow
We're talking Miami by night / Neon and tropical
We're talking Miami delightfully white / Breeze stirred and tropical

We're talking / We're talking / We are talking

Xeno-phobic Re-actions / You know I / I know you / You know I
I know you got them!
