lyrics

I see America in the world
in America
Everyone’s looking for someone to screw
And everybody needs somebody to stand on
Hopefully nobody is standing on you

Went home to C.P., saw a man standing proud
Said “I can hate who I hate, got to say it out loud.
You’ll never change my mind, but thank you for trying
To make me think like you would be unAmerican”

I said all you had to do was put food on the table

I see America in the world
in America
Little by little and day by day
Think we’re exceptional
It’s mostly conjectural
Everywhere I go everybody’s the same

Flew out to Istanbul and a man said to me
“You better watch out for those Syrian refugees
They take our jobs and our money and they send it back home
They’ll take that camera off your back when you think you’re alone”

All you had to do was put food on the table

I see America in the world
in America
Little by little and day by day
Think we’re exceptional
It’s mostly conjectural
Everywhere I go everybody’s the same

America in the world
in America
The more you see, the more it’s unfurled
When you know that everybody here is like everybody there
You see America in its place in the world

All you had to do was put food on the table
