Back in the 70's President Carter said
(Let's get metric now)
Let's drink our lemonade in liters
And tell all our friends
(Let's show people how)

(Let's get metric now)
Let's drink our lemonade in liters
And tell all our friends
(Let's show people how)

All measure by 10's
(Let's get metric now)
No, we didn't get converted
But we're tryin' it again
America, let's get metric
Remember when we went electric
Let's flip the switch and be eclectic
America, let's get metric
