Thinking of the USA - Die Toten Hosen

I’m kicking up dust on an empty street

Waiting for John, Rob, Brian and Liz

I’ve already been stopped by the police

They’re getting kicks, I’m feeling sick

And I’m thinkin'

Yeah I’m thinkin' of the USA

Thinkin' of the USA

Thinkin' of the USA

10:30 and the band is still not on the stage

The kids are getting restless but it’s all to be paid

I really think that I should not stay

I need a rest, I need a drink

And I’m thinkin'

Yeah I’m thinkin' of the USA

Thinkin' of the USA

Dreaming of the CIA

12:45 at the Roxy Club

And I’m tired of just hanging around

I need some sleep, I am so tired

All these people making crazy sounds

And I’m thinkin'

Yeah I’m thinkin' of the USA

Thinkin' of the USA

Dreaming of the SLA

USA, USA, USA, USA!

I’m thinkin'

I’m thinkin' of the USA

Thinkin' of the USA

Dreaming of the CIA

Lou Reed came from the USA

Walter Lure comes from the USA

Richard Nixon came from the USA

Gary Gilmore came from the USA
