That old evening news is sure depressing
This world is in a mess and it don't get better
Terrorism's in fashion and even love can kill you
Oh but I have found a better place to go
We're all livin' in the shadow of the bomb
On the Andy Griffith Show, Angie's letting Otis out of jail
Gomer's helpin' Goober drive the mail
Oh and Barney's lookin' for his bullet, you better watch out for your toes
I wish life was like the Andy Griffith Show
Now they're dealing in souls on the airwaves
