Mainstream U.S.A. Songtext
von They Might Be Giants

As I rode the subway this morning
(can I have this last dance, my darling?)

There was a man with a book beside me
(can I have this last dance with you?)

And he tapped out rhythms with a smile on his face
(I wanna dance the whole night tonight)

And the tip of his finger
(can I have this last dance, my darling?)

That he found on the floor
(can I have this last dance with you?)

And these are the words that he told the fellow next door


Mainstream U.S.A.
I flipped that guy the bird
Mainstream U.S.A.
It′s all I wanna say

Mainstream U.S.A.
I flipped that guy the bird
Mainstream U.S.A.
It's all I wanna say

We are the world (back off, boogaloo)
We are (I′m talking)
We are the world (back off, boogaloo)

Mainstream U.S.A.
I flipped that guy the bird
Mainstream U.S.A.
It's all I wanna say


Mainstream U.S.A.
I flipped that guy the bird
Mainstream U.S.A.
It's all I wanna say
