American Beer

Nobody told me it would be like this

Nobody showed me how to care

What better time than a time like this

To show you all the love i have.

They say there's no more ira to fear

There's no more cold war atmosphere.

And when there's no more iron ore left to dig

There's no more news for us to read.

And if you see me as a diplomat

Then i am winning by the mile

I'll tell you stories like a thief who has

A cheap blue biro and a line.

Satisfaction is a need for us

A satisfaction guaranteed

You taste much better than you did last year

Stronger than american beer.

Take a rest and take your god outside

When i'm on the street i can be what i like

I can talk the way always wanted to

Not many people pass me by

I had a vision like an acrobat

And you caught me spinning like a wheel

I lost control, well, i'll give you that

Well what the hell, it worked for me.

And how i wish that you could see me now

I really wish that you were here

You'd be so proud i know you really would

To see the things that i can do

How i wish that you were with me now

Everything would seem so clear

I'd tell you stories through the 'happy hour'

With a cold, weak american beer.

Nobody told me it would be like this

Nobody showed me how to care

What better time than a time like this

To show you all the love i have
