Just Like The USA

(الألبوم: Knife - 1984)

Stuck in my beat suede shoes I can't wait
Oh, what a state to be in
I need her heart and get a jack-jones for my sins

She's gonna ditch that shining sick machine
And be speeding straight my way
But I'm churning in neutral
Turning in a circle
Just like the USA

The secret is silver, it's to shine and never simply survive
And don't swallow substitutes and never see second prize
'Cause I know that my might could change my mind
And I'm told that by rights it's not my find

I'd be a tribute to temptation
In its glory and its grave
But I'm churning in neutral
Turning in a circle
Just like the USA

The secret is silver, it's to shine and never simply survive
And don't swallow substitutes and never see second prize
'Cause I know that my might could change my mind
And I'm told that by rights it's not my find

I'd be a tower to your highest hopes
That no southern star could sway
But I'm churning in neutral
Turning in a circle
Just like the USA

I hear those rhyming bells and heed the words they say
And with a string of diamelles I'll steal her heart away
'Cause I know that my might could change my mind
And I'm told that by rights it's not my find

In my star-bangled sailor suit
I'd be the pioneer by day
But I'm churning in neutral
Turning in a circle
Just like the USA
