The West Knows Best

[Verse 1]
By happy hearts so broken
We stuck by you, and you know
Your bold swagger made us forget
The dagger at our throat
You're always in a hurry and a rage
I call it defiance of coming of age
But you've cast your last spell on us
You've bombed your last bridge to us, oh

[Chorus]
We used to love America
We used to love America
We used to love America
We used to love America

[Verse 2]
You would have won the world by letting go
But then you lost your way
Your glory days are gone, so smile and roll over
We've got so much more in common today
All hail the stumbling child king
Calling for the vanishing light
Now stay with us, as brothers
Through this darkest of nights, oh

[Chorus]
We used to love America
We used to love America
We used to love America
We used to love America

[Bridge]
And I remember how you sang
We shall all sing again:
"Screw the rest
The west knows best"
Yeah, I remember how you sang
We shall all just sing it:
"Screw the rest
The west knows best
Oh, screw the rest
The west knows best
Screw the rest
The west knows best
Screw the rest
The west knows best"

[Outro]
We used to love America
