Lyrics " American "

Original text with translation

American

Sean Rowe

I was naked and for once I wasn’t ashamed

I looked God in the eye and he spit in my face

He left me on Main Street and drove his Hummer away

Oh the moon has been taken, she knows who you are

The kingdom of heaven is down at the mall

There’s a coat for Saint Peter, it was made in Korea today

The Earth drops her jaw as we float into space

We’re moving to Mars by 2038

You know that there’s oil there

It’s just a matter of time

I’m a man

I am the world

I’m a man

I am the Lord

I’m a man

But I ain’t that American

Oh she pokes out of science, she changes her skin

He falls out of religion and washes his sins

They get married in France, 'cause the deal is better out there

All the kids have grown up on driveways and lawns

And the hunters keep secrets on factory farms

The children are hungry, they’re eating a hole through the world

I’m a man

I am the world

I’m a man

I am the Lord

I’m a man

But I ain’t that American

Oh Eden’s been stolen, chopped up and leased

And her heart hits the market before it can bleed

Her name is forgotten, her ocean is now just a dream

As his love slips away from his work and his home

He puts out the lights and he jerks off alone

He’s married to cancer, he counts on his internet girl

Well I played like a robot, I’ve danced like a stone

I’ve done everything perfect and I want what I own

I am naked and for once I am not ashamed

I’m a man

I am the world

I’m a man

I am the Lord

I’m a man

But I ain’t that American
