Like Jimmy Carter 
Like electric underwear 
Like any idea that 
Never had a chance to go anywhere 

This is who you are 
Hey celebrity 
Who drives off a bridge in a car 
Your beautiful body 
Filling up with water 

Like Harry Truman 
Dropping bombs out of the air 
Like any self-respecting 
Multi-billionaire 

This is who you are 
Five dancing teenage boys 
Who sing their way into our hearts 
Backstreet's back 
Alright. 

And there's a toxic cloud hanging over her 
And there's white noise on the screen 
And there's a man in a hotel room 
Assaulting a maid who just came to clean 
Up the mess. 

Backstreet's back 
Alright. 

Like Ronald Reagan 
Falling asleep for ever more 
Dreaming of horses and 
Dreaming of nuclear war 

This is where we are tonight 
Everybody under surveillance from a satellite 
You can be the first one on your block to die. 

And there's a plague of locusts upon us 
And there's a nightmare in the swarm 
And there's a lion out in the desert 
Slouching t'wards Bethl'hem to be born 
Again 

Backstreet's back 
Alright. 

Alright.
