Wild America lyrics
by Iggy Pop
[Verse]
One night out in LA, I met a Mexicana
With a butchy girlfriend who I thought was a man
They took me to the alley to have a little chat
People lined the corners doin' this and that
[Chorus]
In wild America
Wild America
Wild America
Wild America
[Verse]
Now I'm in a black car with my Mexicana
She's got methedrine, but I want marijuana
I don't wanna drive home, not in my condition
So I ask my friend Matt to handle the ignition
[Chorus]
In wild America
In wild America
Wild America
Wild America
[Bridge]
Exterminate the brutes
Exterminate the brutes
Exterminate the brutes, all right
[Interview]
ROLLINS: Yeah
IGGY: Yeah
ROLLINS: Yeah
IGGY: Yeah
IGGY: Well I mean, I like it here
IGGY: Do you have anything you'd like to say to America?
ROLLINS: I'd just like to say at this point
That I'm a 24 hour, 7 day a week, 365 day a year American
[Verse]
I was glad that Debbie had a sense of humor
This time of the morning, I tend to get gloomy
She laughed and said "Iggy, you have got a biggy!"
I had no reply, so I just closed my eyes
[Chorus]
In wild America
Wild America
Wild America
Wild America
[Bridge]
Exterminate the brutes
Exterminate the brutes
[Outro]
They're goin' wild
Goin' wild
They're goin' wild
They're goin' wild
They're goin' wild
They're goin' wild, baby
They're goin' wild, baby
They got all kinds of f*ckin' stuff
They got everything you could imagine
They're so god dammed spoiled
They're poisoned inside
They judge a man by what he's got
And they wanna have more and more
More power
More freedom
Taller kids
Longer lives
Everything
Bigger houses
Slaves
Woa
