    Lover, don't be sad
    Think of the time we had
    The moment's truer, now
    It won't last
    I don't wanna wave goodbye
    Shout out a thousand times
    I love you 'till the moment dies
    What am I gonna do?
    I can't survive on my Amerika
    If the worst is true
    Is it just a waste of time?
    What am I trying to find?
    Are you alive, oh my Amerika?
    Perennial with the Earth
    And freedom, love, and law, and life
    Perennial with the Earth
    My freedom, I don't wanna die
    Swimming in an unmade cloud
    Drinking in a formal gown
    You tell me that you love to dance
    But you don't know how
    It doesn't mean that we can't try
    Fix me in your twilight eyes
    So we can make a moment last

      I'd have to agree with you.
      You're right, not exactly an endoresing theme song is it?
      "American woman, get away from me...American woman, momma let me be"

      That time American bands, tv shows, movies, books, economists, politicians and everyone else threw the gavel at everyone and everything but their own reflections and honestly believed theirs' is the only judgement that matters.
      We don't have a copyright on the "feck foreigners" mentality. Nationalism and a negative opinion of neighboring cultures isn't new. It's old, ignorant and insular.
