America |
Where do you live? |
Where do you eat? |
Do you still live on Semaphore Street? |
The children we were have grown into us |
You in a car and me in a bus |
How do you know you’ll recognize me? |
I’m not too clear, but I’m easy to see |
Moving alone through the fossilized crowd |
People in motion who feel so loud, yeah |
I gave America your name and she taped it on the sea |
I gave America your kiss and she blew it over me |
What ya see |
How do you know when you’ve gone too far? |
Look in the mirror, that’s where you are |
People go by on their legs and their hands |
Bury their heads in the evening sands |
I gave America my blood and she drank it gratefully |
I told America her weight and she said you’d wait for me |
All of me |
Someone like you impresses my head |
Maybe it’s true I’m not totally dead |
This is goodbye, yeah, I’ve said it before |
This time you’re not gonna see me no more, well |
I gave America her head and she fired it at me |
I gave America her mouth and she turned it on to me |
I gave America her heart and it’s beating over me |
I gave America her gold and she melted over me |
