Lyrics

“I’m Afraid of Americans”


Uh-uh-uh uh, uh, uh-uh uh-uh-uh

Johnny’s in America

No tricks at the wheel

Uh-uh-uh uh, uh, uh-uh uh-uh-uh

No one needs anyone

They don’t even just pretend

Uh-uh-uh uh, uh, uh-uh uh-uh-uh

Johnny’s in America


I’m afraid of Americans

I’m afraid of the world

I’m afraid I can’t help it

I’m afraid I can’t

I’m afraid of Americans

I’m afraid of the world

I’m afraid I can’t help it

I’m afraid I can’t

I’m afraid of Americans


Johnny’s in America

Uh-uh-uh uh, uh, uh-uh uh-uh-uh


Johnny wants a plane

Johnny wants to suck on a Coke

Johnny wants a woman

Johnny wants to think of a joke

Uh-uh-uh uh, uh, uh-uh uh-uh-uh

Johnny’s in America

Uh-uh-uh uh, uh, uh-uh uh-uh-uh


I’m afraid of Americans

I’m afraid of the world

I’m afraid I can’t help it

I’m afraid I can’t

I’m afraid of Americans

I’m afraid of the world

I’m afraid I can’t help it

I’m afraid I can’t

I’m afraid of Americans


Johnny’s in America

Johnny looks up at the stars

Johnny combs his hair down

And Johnny wants pussy in cars

Johnny’s in America,

uh-uh-uh uh, uh, uh-uh uh-uh-uh

Johnny’s in America


I’m afraid of Americans

I’m afraid of the world

I’m afraid I can’t help it

I’m afraid I can’t

I’m afraid of Americans

I’m afraid of the world

I’m afraid I can’t help it

I’m afraid I can’t

I’m afraid of Americans


Yeah, I’m afraid of Americans

I’m afraid of the words

I’m afraid I can’t help it

I’m afraid I can’t

I’m afraid of Americans


God is an American

God is an American

God is an American

God is an American

God is an American

God is an American

God is an American

God is an American
