MORRISSEY LYRICS - America Is Not The World

"America Is Not The World"



America, your head's too big

Because, America,

Your belly's too big

And I love you, I just wish you'd stay where you is



In America

The land of the Free, they said

And of Opportunity

In a just and a truthful way

But where the President

Is never black, female or gay

And until that day

You've got nothing to say to me

To help me believe

In America



"It brought you the hamburger"

Well. America, you know where

You can shove your hamburger

And don't you wonder

Why in Estonia they say

"Hey you, Big fat pig

You fat pig, You fat pig"



Steely-blue eyes with no love in them

Scan The World

And a humourless smile

With no warmth within

Greets the world

And I, I have got nothing

To offer you

No-no-no-no-no

Just this heart deep and true

Which you say you don't need



See with your eyes

Touch with your hands, please

Hear through your ears

Know in your soul, please

For haven't you me with you now?

And I love you, I love you, I love you

And I love you, I love you, I love you
