America Lyrics by ​new threads

Felonious Wilma

2019

(This is as groovy as it gets)

Driving home in Felonious Wilma again
I wanna live in America
I wanna live in America
Sitting on the foldout couch around the bends
I wanna live in America
I wanna live in America

But I don't really want to, but I know I have to
Cuz I wanna leave my job again
But I don’t wanna be broke again
Cuz I need to, but do I really have to?
I don't have much more time to spend
& I'm gonna do it with my friends
I need to, I need you

Walking home in forty dollar Nike sneaks’
We're all alone in America
We're all alone in America
Watch the pavement cracking underneath my feet
I wanna live in America
I wanna live in America

But I don't really want to, but I know I have to
Cuz I wanna leave my job again
But I don't wanna be broke again
Cuz I need to, but do I really have to?
I don't have much more time to spend
& I'm gonna do it with my friends
I need to, I need you

We're falling apart in America!
We’re falling apart in America!

But I don’t really want to, but I know I have to
Cuz I wanna leave my job again
But I don't wanna be broke again
Cuz I need to, but do I really have to?
I don’t have much more time to spend
& I'm gonna do it with my friends
I need to, I need you

Walking through America
Walking through America
