Crazy Island — текст песни (John Mellencamp)

Written by John Mellencamp

Hey Hey America
You`re some kind of crazy island
You`re a place where dreams can grow
And there`s history in your mansions
Good fortune in your plantings
You`re well respected we all know
Hey Hey America
Let`s check your children
And see what they might know

Hey Hey America
With your salesmanship and your salaries
And your strip malls a growin`
And your handguns and your heresies
Don`t hold no responsibility
In this land of easy millions
Hey Hey America
It`s so thrillin` to see you grow

You`re some kind of crazy island
You`re some kind of crazy island

Well I prefer a sunny day
I just thought maybe I`d live a little bit longer that way
I don`t think we should look the same
Or talk the same
Yeah I think it`s a shame
And Hey Hey America
Across the new horizon
Are you sure that`s the way we should go
`Cause I don`t know
Maybe it`s too late for all that

And Hey Hey America
You`re wrapped up in your red, white and blue
Hey Hey America
Wrapped up in yourself and your red, white and blue
Hey Hey America
You`re some kind of crazy island

You`re some kind of crazy island

Hey Hey America
You`re some kind of crazy island
You`re a place where dreams can grow
And there`s history in your mansions
Hey Hey America
You`re some kind of crazy island
Some kind of crazy island
