Young Americans Lyrics
Look beyond the obvious
Too see whats inside
A stamped envelope
But from what country did it reside?
A inherent lack of geography
Will it hurt my so called popularity
Look beyond the obvious
Too see whats inside
I see no indicator
Is it from the country I reside
Thank you my young americans
Thank you
Thank you my young americans
From England
From England
Closer as we look
What country may we suggest
As if any one other than us
Would write to our pres.
It must be Americans
Despite the mailing address
It must be americans
Or maybe my brain is messed
Thank you my young americans
Thank you
Thank you my young americans
From England
From England
Leader of our country
Simple geography
Proves quite a challenge
Lead us to victory
But where are we?
Thank you my young americans
Thank you
Thank you my young americans
From England
From England
English are americans in my book
hey i just didnt know
Can i claim ignorance
Definately believable though
Thank you my young americans
Thank you
Thank you my young americans
From England
From England
You sent me a letter you mayn as well be.
Its tough this simple geography
Too see whats inside
A stamped envelope
But from what country did it reside?
Will it hurt my so called popularity
Look beyond the obvious
Too see whats inside
I see no indicator
Is it from the country I reside
Thank you
Thank you my young americans
From England

Add your song meanings, interpretations, facts, memories & more to the community.
This song is taken from an actual incident when Mr, Bush our president sent a letter to a class full of kids in england and it said thank you you americans. The class broke out in laughter because of our presidents lack of knowledge in geography.

hey, everyone makes mistakes eh? remember Quayle? he actually was a smart man, but lacked (severely) public speaking skills. eh, what'd'ya gonna do :)
Except bush is a plain moron who tries to cover his mistakes.
Everyone makes mistakes
Not everyone is a full blown moron
