In a tiny little house me and my girl

Take a little trip around the world

In the moonlight, in cheap black and white



We love to lay around in bed

Playing tourist in our heads

Travelling light in cheap black and white



oh how we love to spend the day

dreaming under skies of gray

anything we might desire

comes to us through the wire



see our great leader speaking his mind

picture postcards for the blind

a beautiful sight in cheap black and white

see kennedy's kids on Hollywood squares

latest hits and foreign affairs

we grow up tonight in cheap black and white



oh how we love to spend the day

dreaming under skies of gray

lofty goals and cheap desires

fuel that will cool the fire



this fancy island sure is nice

seems almost like paradise

close but not quite

in cheap black and white

in cheap black and white

in cheap black and white
