IGGY POP
- Wild America LyricsOne night out in L.A.
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 corner
doin' this and that
in wild america
now i 'm in a black car
with my mexicana
she's got methedrine but
i want marijuana
i don 't want to drive home
not in my condition
so i ask my friend matt
to handle the ignition
in wild america
exterminate the brutes
(live interview:
Rollins: yeah
Iggy: yeah
Rollins: yeah
Iggy: yeah
Iggy: well i mean i like it here...do you have anything you' d like to say to america?
Rollins: I'd iust like to say at this point that i' m 24 hour, 7 day a week, 365 day a year american)
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
in wild america
exterminate the brutes
they're goin' wild
goin' wild
they' re goin' wild
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 iudge a man by what he's got
and they wanta have more and more
more power, more freedom
taller kids, longer lives
everything, bigger houses, slaves, woa
