Dubioza kolektiv "U.S.A." (Official video)
Listening and watching English language stuff on YouTube you can easily forget that it is a WORLD WIDE WEB, and then something like this pops up and you realize that even people from lower Elbonia are connected. Lyrics below, because they are sort of interesting.
"U.S.A."
The grass is always greener
in neighbors' courtyard
I wish to leave this nightmare
go to a Promised Land
Please, take me to your leader
I want my green card
I want to fly over
Like a rocket from the Balkans
I want to start all over
and turn a new page
Forget this dreadful story
Escape the Stone Age
I'm waiting for chance
to get out of the cage
I feel like a slave
on a minimal wage
I am form Bosnia
Take me to America
I really want to see
Statue of Liberty
I can no longer wait
Take me to United States
take me to Golden Gate
I will assimilate
One day, when you reach the end
One day, you will understand
One day, back to roots my friend
No place like a motherland
I hoped I'll find what I need
I'll be free like a bird
Now we're pushed in a ghetto
Like the sheep in a herd
All the promises I heard
Became empty words
Completely disconnected
From the rest of the world
The grass is never greener
in neighbors' courtyard
I want to start all over
Return to No Mans Land
Send greetings to your leader
Don't want your Green Card
I want to fly back
Like a rocket to the Balkans
