Killing Joke - America lyrics

rate me

I can survive the rat race honey

Time is money and money is honey, honey

My megabucks your symmetrical beauty

Together we can serve the nation - yeah!

The quality of life filled us all with pride

America

And as I watched I just cried and cried

How I love America

I will buy you rich perfumes

And we will eat the finest foods

A mansion in New England

A silver dollar for every child

Where everybody has got their price

They'll sustain our way of life

You and I will fly to Rio

I'll make you feel like a millionaire

I can survive the rat race honey

Time is money and money is honey, honey

My megabucks your symmetrical beauty

Together we can serve the nation - yeah!

The quality of life filled us all with pride

America

And as I watched I just cried and cried

How I love America

West is best and might is right

And with our allies - fight the good fight

A first class, five star enterprise

Now everybody's got to compromise

My moral code's on overload

Liberty still takes its toll

Take a look at the losers wasting in the bars

Where they cut their losses!

I can survive the rat race honey

Time is money, and money is honey, honey

My megabucks your symmetrical beauty

Together we can serve the nation - yeah!

The quality of life filled us all with pride

America

And as I watched I just cried and cried

How I love America

There were fireworks in the Gulf

There was champagne at home - How I love America

But showbiz and Hollywood still shouted out - America
