There's blood on the sidewalk
From someone I don't know
I step around it
So I won't get it on my shoe

On my way to work in Washington
On my way to work in Washington
On my way to work in Washington, DC

My name is America, but I pronounced it George
Some people think I'm rich
But I am mostly poor
And I cover it up to get you to fight in my war

The truth is
I am my own enemy
But I'll buy anything
You advertise on TV

On my way to work in Washington
On my way to work in Washington
On my way to work in Washington, DC

Gotta make it look good
Gotta make it look good
Gotta make it look good

Every Friday, Karen and Katy
Go to take care of babies with aids
Who were born like their mothers
Addicted to crack

Drinking their bottles
Lying on their backs
Just like their fathers
Mom ain't coming back

On my way to work in Washington
On my way to work in Washington
On my way to work in Washington, DC

Gotta make it look good
Gotta make it look good
Gotta make it look good

Gotta make it look good
Gotta make it look good
Gotta make it look good

There's blood on the sidewalk
From someone I might know
Should I step around it
So I won't get it on my soul

On my way to work in Washington
On my way to work in Washington
On my way to work in Washington, DC

Gotta make it look good
Gotta make it look good
Gotta make it look good
