Bigger Than America

There's a bookstore in town where no-one reads

And those who remember will disappear

I hate to see them getting old

But they're better dead than read

I've just discovered something new

America called and put cables on us

Now it's crazy like Disneyland

The return of the soft machine

The return of the soft machine

Take a look what's going on

The entertainment has begun

Driving in a golden car

Bigger than America

Everybody can be a fool

You can't see it but you know it's coming

The cars are flying and the people dying

Now we're back on the wild side again

Africa screams hot, hard and mean

In Europe the crimes are in the streets

So don't cry baby killer, daddy's gone a-hunting

And you know he'll be back again

The return of the soft machine

And you know he'll be back again

Tell the truth and damn the lies

Crushed by the fortune's famous eyes

Driving in a golden car

Bigger than America

Loadin' up an' havin' fun

The magic circle is the magic gun

Shooting for a golden star

Bigger than America
