Вершы: Al Stewart. Russians & Americans. One, Two, Three (1, 2, 3).

One, two, three
That's how elementary it's gonna be just fine and dandy
It's easy
Like taking candy from a baby

Primitive country, rich in minerals
You pay them with beads
Tip the generals
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

Foreign policy made above my head
Well, no one asked me
They just laughed and said
It's easy
(It's so easy)
Like taking candy from a baby

It's easy
(It's so easy)
Like taking candy from a baby
(One, two three, ah)
(One, two three, ah)

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
(It's so easy)
Like taking candy from a baby
It's easy
(It's so easy)
Like taking candy from a baby
