Troy Pohl - American lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus] 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
