a fourth of july dedication:
I like to be in America
O.K. by me in America
Everything free in America
(For a small fee in America)
Buying on credit is so nice
(One look at us, and they charge twice)
I'll have my own washing machine!
(What will you have, though, to keep clean?)
Skyscrapers bloom in America
Cadillacs zoom in America
Industry boom in America
(Twelve in a room in America)
Lots of new housing with more space
(Lots of doors slamming in our face)
I'll have a terrace apartment!
(Better get rid of your accent)
Life can be bright in America
(If you can fight in America)
Life is alright in America
(If you're all white in America)
Here you are free and you have pride
(Long as you stay on your own side)
Free to be anything you choose
(Free to wait tables and shine shoes!)
Everywhere grime in America
Organized crime in America
Terrible time in America
You forget I'm in America.
