The American - Simple Minds

Here comes the shake

The speed-decade wake

I see you wake

Shake

Fit on those overalls

What do you know about this world anyway

I see a man

With an airfield plan

I caught a boy fall out of the sky

What do you know about this world anyway

Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Amer-American

In collective fame

Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Amer-American

Nassau club day

Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Amer-American

Across a curved earth

In collective fame

Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Amer-American

The eventful work-outs

Nassau club days

Here comes the flag

I'm walking in the black

Every time you tough this place

It feels like sin

Every time the handshake starts

The face draws thin

What do you know about this world anyway

Here comes the son

The american son

In here the son shines so bright

Eyes blind

What do you know about this world anyway

Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Amer-American

The eventful workouts

Nassau club days

Here comes the flag

Hand-shake

This world...
