I`ve tried every conceivable pill
to stop me from getting so ill
but when the ship starts to rock n roll
I`ve got to reach for me medical bowl
And it would take a magical potion
to carry me across the Atlantic ocean
it`s no good you saying it`s quicker by air
I`d be very much sicker if I went up there.
I`d like to see America
the President and his Cadillac car.
Everythings fine in America
but I don`t think that I`ll get that far
`cause it would take a magical potion
to carry me across the Atlantic ocean
no good you saying it`s quicker by air
I`d be sicker if I went up there.
Everything in America`s fine
the Coca Cola and the Neon sign
Broadway is the place for me
though it`s a place that I`ll never be
I`d like to go to California
put some flowers in my hair
I`d like to go to Hollywood
see the film-stars if I only could
But it would take a magical potion
to carry me across the Atlantic ocean
no good you saying it`s quicker by air
I know I`d be sicker if I went up there.
