just like the usa þarký sözü

words and music by roddy frame
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.
´cos 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 it´s glory and it´s 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.
´cos 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.

´cos 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.
