David Byrne - American Troglodyte lyrics

I could be a dancer, maybe I could be a judge Used to sing that karaoke But I, I don't do it much Democracy in action There is nothin' up my sleeve A watermelon postcard I am Plantin' all my seeds Americans are wearin' those s**y jeans Americans are usin' technology Americans are surfin' that Internet Americans are listenin' to 50 Cent Americans are buyin' that modern art Americans are drivin' gigantic cars Americans are doin' that exercise Americans are livin' like troglodytes Everybody knows me They are drinkin' to my health I terrorized my family and I Terrorize myself Evangelized my bedroom You can ride away with me All the girls together In a mighty symphony Americans are playin' that basketball Americans are doin' that rock and roll Americans are goin' to outer space Americans are buyin' that real estate Americans are livin' the simple life Americans are dancin' on Friday nights Americans are goin' to Broadway shows Americans believe in the Holy Ghost Americans are wearin' that lingerie Americans are throwin' that sh** away Americans are watchin' reality Americans are goin' from A to Z Americans are dancin' in discothèques Americans are payin' their income tax Americans are workin' from 9 to 5 Americans are livin' like troglodytes
