American Sports lyrics

So when you gaze at planet earth from outer space

Does it wipe that stupid look off of your face?

I saw this aura over the battleground states

I lost the money, lost the keys

But I'm still handcuffed to the briefcase

And I never thought, not in a million year

That I'd meet so many lovers

Can I please have my money back?

My virtual reality mask is stuck on ‘Parliament Brawl’

Emergency battery pack just in time for my weekly chat with God on videocall

Breaking news they take the truth and make it fluid

The trainer's explanation was accepted by the steward

A montage of the latest ancient ruins

Soundtracked by a chorus of ‘you don't know what you're doing’

And I never thought, not in a million year

That I'd meet so many lovers

And all of my most muscular regrets explode behind my eyes like American sports

And I never thought, not in a million year

That I'd meet so many lovers
