This
is a blues song, it's over 30 years old,
and still resonates today.
Sadly, more than ever....
I'M AN AMERICAN WEIRDO
YOU'RE A WEIRDO TOO
IF YOU LIVE HERE IN AMERICA
THEN THERE'S NOTHIN YOU CAN DO
BUT DO YOUR BEST TO DREAM
THE AMERICAN DREAM
AND IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NITE
WHEN THE LEFT BECOMES THE RIGHT
YOU REALIZE "THIS IS NOT MY DREAM!"
CHORUS
WHOA...AMERICA
IT'S HARD TO TELL MY RIGHTS
FROM YOUR CRIMES
AMERICA, IT'S HARD TO TELL YOUR FAKES
FROM YOUR GENUINES.
OH AMERICA WHY DO YOU ACT LIKE HELL
WHEN YOU COULD BE PARADISE
SOLO
THERE'S AN AMERICAN WEIRDO
SITTIN BY A POOL
THEY DON'T HAVE A STEADY JOB
AND THEY NEVER FINISHED SCHOOL
THEIR FRIENDS ALL COME AROUND
THEY JUST MAKE DEALS ALL DAY
IF YOU WANNA QUOTE ME
WELL I'VE GOT NOTHIN TO SAY
CHORUS
I ONLY SING THIS SONG TO FIND OUT WHAT WENT WRONG
MY COUNTRY TIS OF THEE
SWEET LAND OF LIBERTY
WHERE DID YOU GO?
