thomas mook - only in america lyrics

there’s a man in bisbee, arizona
he told me that he lost his way
wanted more from life than he was given
and moved out to l.a
he rode straight into beverly hills
got ready to unpack
and then he saw a million other people
so he just headed back

and i thought: only in america
would so many feel the same
only in america
would they think it’s all a game

there’s a girl, she lives in new york city
and works down at the park
people say ‘oh, she’s really pretty
but transforms after dark.”
she’s got dreams, hopes of being famous
and dances on the stage
she’ll get stuck working there for wages
and never turn the page

and i thought: only in america
is a nightmare still a dream
only in america
do they fear more than they seem
only in america
would they still pack up and go
is it really all a show
there’s a boy, his intercontinental
arrived here yesterday
and a girl waiting with a rental
to take him far away
they don’t care wherever they’re going
no cure for wanderl+st
and she says: “hey, if we’re never stopping
then nothing can stop us.”

and i say: only in america
could a big life feel so small
only in america
could they live like that at all
only in america
could they do the things they do
only in america
could i meet someone like you
