The Stranglers Big in America song lyrics

I met a roach in America

his family had a massive tree

they live just about everywhere -

he was big in America

he was big in America.

I met a vet in America

he was alive

he was in overdrive

he'd just been around everywhere -

he was big in America

he was big in America.

And when you're big in America you like to live in America -

you won't be on your own -

and since you're big in America

you might as well make America your home.

Big in America!

I met a girl in America

she wore the pants

cross the big expanse

she was whipping men everywhere -

she was big in America

she was big in America.

And when you're big in America you like to live in America -

big in America!

Big in America!

Big in America!
