Party in the U.S.A. Lyrics by We Were Giants

Pop Goes Hardcore Volume 2

2023

[Verse 1]
I hopped off the plane at LAX
With a dream and my cardigan
Welcome to the land of fame excess
Am I gonna fit in?
Jumped in the cab, here I am for the first time
Look to my right, and I see the Hollywood sign
This is all so crazy
Everybody's looking so famous
[Pre-Chorus]
My tummy's turnin' and I'm feelin' kinda homesick
Too much pressure and I'm nervous
That's when the taxi man turned on the radio
And the JAY-Z song was on
And the JAY-Z song was on
And the JAY-Z song was on
[Chorus]
So I got my hands up
They're playin' my song, the butterflies fly away
I'm noddin' my head like, "Yeah!"
Movin' my hips like, "Yeah!"
I got my hands up, they're playin' my song
I know I'm gonna be okay
Yeah, it's a party in the U.S.A
Yeah, it's a party in the U.S.A
[Verse 2]
Get to the club in my taxi cab
Everybody's lookin' at me now (Woah)
"Who's that chick that's rockin' kicks?"
"She gotta be from out of town" (Woah-oh-oh-oh)
So hard with my girls not around me
It's definitely not a Nashville party
'Cause all I see are stilettos
I guess I never got the memo
[Pre-Chorus]
My tummy's turnin' and I'm feelin' kinda homesick!
Too much pressure and I'm nervous!
That's when the DJ dropped my favorite tune
And a Britney song was on!
And a Britney song was on
And a Britney song was on (It's Britney, bitch)
[Chorus]
So I put my hands up
They're playin' my song, the butterflies fly away
I'm noddin' my head like, "Yeah!"
Movin' my hips like, "Yeah!"
I got my hands up, they're playin' my song
I know I'm gonna be okay
Yeah, it's a party in the U.S.A
Yeah, it's a party in the U.S.A
[Bridge]
Feel like hopping on a flight (Feel like hopping on a flight)
Back to my hometown tonight (Back to my hometown tonight)
Something stops me every time! (Something stops me everytime)
The DJ plays my song and I feel alright (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
[Chorus]
So I put my hands up
They're playin' my song, the butterflies fly away (Nodding my-)
I'm noddin' my head like, "Yeah" (Noddin' my head)
Movin' my hips like, "Yeah" (Ooh)
I got my hands up, they're playin' my song
I know I'm gonna be okay (Gonna be okay)
Yeah, it's a party in the U.S.A
Yeah, it's a party in the U.S.A
So I got my hands up
They're playin' my song, the butterflies fly away (Fly away)
I'm noddin' my head like, "Yeah" (Noddin' my head like, "Yeah")
Movin' my hips like, "Yeah" (Movin' my hips like, "Yeah")
I got my hands up, they're playin' my song
They know I'm gonna be okay (Gonna be okay)
Yeah, it's a party in this U.O.A
Yeah, it's a party in this U.O.S
[Outro]
God, you f-...
Hahahaha
You just count to one, two, three
Why you giggling?
