| so you been to school for a year or two
So you been to school for a year or two
And you know you've seen it all
In daddy's car thinkin' you'll go far
Back east your type don't crawl
G D <- switch to chords
Play ethnicky jazz to parade your snazz
On your five grand stereo
Braggin that you know how the niggers feel cold
And the slums got so much soul
It's time to taste what you most fear
Right Guard will not help you here
Brace yourself, my dear
Brace yourself, my dear
It's a holiday in Cambodia
It's tough kid but it's life
It's a holiday in Cambodia
riff1
Don't forget to pack a wife
You're a Star-Belly Sneech you suck like a leech
You want everyone to act like you
Kiss ass while you bitch so you can get rich
But your boss gets richer off you
Well you'll work harder with a gun in your back
For a bowl of rice a day
Slave for soldiers till you starve
Then your head is skewered on a stake
Now you can go where the people are one
Now you can go where they get things done
What you need, my son
What you need, my son
It's a holiday in Cambodia
Where people dress in black
A holiday in Cambodia
riff1
Where you'll kiss ass or crack
Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, ...
< THE LEAD GOES HERE,... PERHAPS ANOTHER DAY >
It's a holiday in Cambodia
Where you'll do what your told
A holiday in Cambodia
Where the slums got so much soul Pol Pot
