My America

It's about how the United States (or we can also say, England) transmits an image to the rest of the world like it's the perfect country, the perfect culture, economy, and way of doing all kinds of things, etc., when in reality they're abusing of your natural and even human resources, making war, killing directly and indirectly, encouraging and forcing other countries to have people working in a sub-conditions job to keep up in the economy system exporting products to them. They're able to see all the misery in many parts of the world, it's the richest country but they won't help! All US does is trade agreements that in the end will ultimately benefit it more than the other country in question. We're bombarded with crap music, eating habits and fast food from multinational corporations from there, we're teach to dream about traveling and living in the "the best nation in the world"... The great majority of people simply never stop to think about it, to think how fake it's, how egoist it's. The song is about how the countries fall like a duck to this country's seducing manners. The singer is playing the role of a country or citizen that has been blind by this rockstar-like US, innocently handing everything it has. Sang in the perfect tone by Nina Persson! :)

I think this song is about somebody's first time having sex. "My America" is a metaphor. Like Colonialists conquered America (The New World), she is conquering her first lover, or maybe just a new lover.
