America

©2012 Stephen G Brown

Tell me what is America
Is it baseball and apple pie?
Is it guns, guts and glory?
Go team, go

Tell me what is America
Is it burgers and icecream?
Big cars and big houses?
And bigger loans

Thought I knew you
But I was wrong

Tell me what is America
Is it Christmas with snowmen?
Is it Easter with Honey Ham?
And Halloween

Tell me what is America
Is farmers and factories?
Is it where all men live most free
Or is that Amsterdam?

Thought I knew you
But I was wrong

  1. Desolate and understated. Just the way I like them.
