Lyrics

Here comes the shake The speed-decade wake I see you wake Shake Fit on those overalls What do you know about this world anyway I see a man With an airfield plan I caught a boy fall out of the sky What do you know about this world anyway Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Amer-American In collective fame Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Amer-American Nassau club day Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Amer-American Across a curved earth In collective fame Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Amer-American The eventful work-outs Nassau club days Here comes the flag I'm walking in the black Every time you touch this place It feels like sin Every time the handshake starts The face draws thin What do you know about this world anyway Here comes the son The american son In here the son shines so bright Eyes blind What do you know about this world anyway Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Ameri-Amer-American The eventful workouts Nassau club days Here comes the flag Hand-shake
