but forgot what that could be
there’s a lot of me inside you
maybe you’re afraid to see
well I used to stand for something
now I’m on my hands and knees
trading in my god for this one
and he signs his name with a capital G

Uh-uh-uh uh, uh, uh-uh uh-uh-uh
Jonny’s in America
No tricks at the wheel
Uh-uh-uh uh, uh, uh-uh uh-uh-uh
No one needs anyone
They don’t even just pretend
Uh-uh-uh uh, uh, uh-uh uh-uh-uh
Jonny’s in America
I’m afraid I can’t help it, I’m afraid I can’t
Jonny’s in America
Uh-uh-uh uh, uh, uh-uh uh-uh-uh
Jonny wants a plane
Jonny wants to suck on a Coke
Jonny wants a woman
Jonny wants to think of a joke
Uh-uh-uh uh, uh, uh-uh uh-uh-uh
Jonny’s in America
Uh-uh-uh uh, uh, uh-uh uh-uh-uh
Jonny’s in America
Jonny looks up at the stars
Jonny combs his hair
And Jonny wants pussy in cars
Jonny’s in America, uh-uh-uh uh, uh, uh-uh uh-uh-uh
I’m afraid of Americans
God is an American
God is an American
I focus on the pain the only thing that’s real
The needle tears a hole the old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away but I remember everything
What have I become my sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away in the end
You could have it all my empire of dirt
I will let you down I will make you hurt
I wear this crown of shit upon my liar’s chair
Full of broken thoughts I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time the feelings disappear
You are someone else I am still right here
