Placebo - Blue American

Blue American

I wrote this novel just for you
It sounds pretentious but its true
I wrote this novel just for you
Thats why its vulgar
Thats why its blue
And I sang thank you
I sang thank you
I wrote this novel just for Mom
For all the Mommy things shes done
For all the times she showed me wrong
For all the times she sang our song
And I sang thank you Mom
Hello Mom
Thank you Mom
Hi Mom
I read a book about Uncle Tom
Where whitey bastard made a bomb
But now Ebonics rule our song
Those motherfuckers got it wrong
And I asked
Who is uncle Tom?
Who is uncle Tom?
Who is uncle Tom?
You are
I read a book about the self
Said I should get expensi have help
Go fix my head
Create some wealth
Put my neurosis on the shelf
But I dont care for myself
I dont care for myself
I dont care for myself
I dont care
I wrote this novel just for you
Imso pretentious
Yes its true
I wrote this novel just for you
Just for you
Just for you
