[Verse 1]
I'm in the loony bin
The dead fish
The air-conditioning
I got a ticket for your grande finale
Its 130 in d**h Valley
I've been lost and double-crossed
Chased down and stabbed in the bloody frost
I'm a lost child on your evening news
You're a queen in a castle of sugar cubes
[Chorus]
America!
America!
[Verse 2]
I've seen your guillotine
A fat boy adrift in a limousine
Through the land of the lost Cherokee
Down the rivers of red majesty
And I've seen your pastures of green
The crack who*es, the wars on the silver screen
Hiroshima and the lynching tree
Its a wonder my eyes still can see
[Chorus]
America!
America!
You give me nightmares
[Verse 3]
Did you k** your son Joe Hill?
The night nurse, she read me his final will
I thought of running off, but where would I go?
I wouldn't make it beyond Buffalo
I'd miss your cowgirl kiss
The red fangs, the lips, the avarice
Its getting high time for your grande finale
Its 130 in d**h Valley
[Chorus]
America!
America!
You give me dreams to dream
Popcorn memories and in love
