The American lyrics

Here comes the shake, the speed-decade wake

I see you wake, shake, fit on those overalls

What do you know about this world anyway

I see a man with an airfield plan

I caught a boy fall out of the sky

What do you know about this world anyway

Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-American

In collective fame

Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-American

Nassau club day

Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-American

Across a curved earth

In collective fame

Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-American

The eventful work-outs

Nassau club days

Here comes the flag

I'm walking in the black

Every time you touch this place it feels like sin

Every time the handshake starts, the face draws thin

What do you know about this world anyway

Here comes the son, the American son

In here the son shines so bright, eyes blind

What do you know about this world anyway

Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-American

In collective fame

Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-American

Nassau club day

Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-American

Across a curved earth

In collective fame

Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-American

The eventful work-outs

Nassau club days

Here comes the flag

Hand-shake

This world
