Do you remember America? Burning brightly in the numbing embrace of history.
Do you remember America? When it stood alone & lost
Do you remember America? Careering down the freeway with Dean at the wheel and Maggie on his arm
Do you remember America? With candy & silk stockings to burn
Do you remember America? Hanging out at The Factory 231, East 47th, Midtown
Do you remember America? From the dust bowl to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Do you remember America? In a log cabin just outside Woodstock
Do you remember America? Wrapped in a flag and burdened with hope
Do you remember America? Slashed to the waist, tattooed top to toe
Do you remember America? Careering down the freeway with Dean at the wheel and Maggie on his arm
Do you remember America? With candy & silk stockings to burn
Do you remember America? Hanging out at The Factory 231, East 47th, Midtown
Do you remember America? From the dust bowl to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Do you remember America? In a log cabin just outside Woodstock
Do you remember America? Wrapped in a flag and burdened with hope
Do you remember America? Slashed to the waist, tattooed top to toe
Do you remember America? A neon sunset shimmering over Vegas
...followed by the pitch black dawn
