Lyrics Thinking of the USA - Die Toten Hosen

Thinking of the USA

I’m kicking up dust on an empty street
Waiting for John, Rob, Brian and Liz
I’ve already been stopped by the police
They’re getting kicks, I’m feeling sick
And I’m thinkin'
Yeah I’m thinkin' of the USA
Thinkin' of the USA
Thinkin' of the USA
10:30 and the band is still not on the stage
The kids are getting restless but it’s all to be paid
I really think that I should not stay
I need a rest, I need a drink
And I’m thinkin'
Yeah I’m thinkin' of the USA
Thinkin' of the USA
Dreaming of the CIA
12:45 at the Roxy Club
And I’m tired of just hanging around
I need some sleep, I am so tired
All these people making crazy sounds
And I’m thinkin'
Yeah I’m thinkin' of the USA
Thinkin' of the USA
Dreaming of the SLA
USA, USA, USA, USA!
I’m thinkin'
I’m thinkin' of the USA
Thinkin' of the USA
Dreaming of the CIA
Lou Reed came from the USA
Walter Lure comes from the USA
Richard Nixon came from the USA
Gary Gilmore came from the USA
