Al Stewart One Two Three


One, two, three.
That's how elementary
it's gonna be.
Just fine and dandy,
it's easy,
like taking candy from a baby.

>From the poor country,
when you bought a rose, you
paid them with beads,
tipped the general,
it's easy,
like taking candy from a baby.

The hard part is learning about it,
the hard part is breaking through to the truth.
The hard part is learning to doubt
what you read, what you hear, what you see on the news.

Foriegn policy,
made above my head, well,
no one asked me.
They just laughed and said
it's easy,
like taking candy from a baby.
It's easy,
like taking candy from a baby.

Once they get you sucked into the system,
once they get you under control,
the hard part is knowing how to resist
the grip that they keep on your mind and your soul.

So in the end,
we just compromise,
and pretend.
If you close your eyes,
it's easy,
like taking candy from a baby.
