- DAN QUAYLE'S WONDERFUL WORLD
-
- Don't know much about history
- Don't know much foreign policy
- Don't remember how I got through school
- I'm sure I didn't break the rules
- But what's it matter 'cause my granny says
- "Boy, if you want to you can be vice prez
- And what a wonderful world this will be"
-
- Don't know much about the women's vote
- Don't know much about the bill I wrote
- Don't know much about the foreign vets
- I've never voted for 'em yet
- But I do know if you dad tries hard
- He can get you in the National Guard
- And what a wonderful place that can be
-
- Now, I never claimed to be an A student
- But what's wrong with C's?
- And maybe by knowing the names of my cabinet
- I can win their love for me
-
- Don't know much about air pollution
- Don't know much about the constitution
- Don't know much about th' economy
- It never much affected me
- But there's one thing that I know for sure
- If the rich stay rich and poor stay poor
- What a wonderful world this will be
-
- Don't know much about the national debt
- I've never had to pay one yet
- If we need to we can sell the States
- To the Japanese at discount rates
- But I do know if things get bad
- George and I can always call my dad
- And what a wonderful world it will be.

-
- Don't know much about what's on TV
- Fact or fiction looks the same to me
- Who's elite? Only I can tell
- They're the ones that know how to spell
- But I do know that choice is bad
- Otherwise I'd have a childless dad
- And what a wonderful world this would be
-

- BTW, I've been off the net for a month. Did Mike by chance post an updated
- Quayle Quotes? If so, can someone send me a new copy?

- Ya know, it really sucks being laid-off only six months out of college and,
- on top of that, right before Christmas and, on top of that, losing net access.
