I'm So Bored With the U.S.A. — The Clash

(Strummer/Jones)

Yankee soldier He wanna shoot some skag He met it in Cambodia But now he can't afford a bag

Yankee dollar talk To the dictators of the world In fact it's giving orders An' they can't afford to miss a word

I'm so bored with the U...S...A... But what can I do?

Yankee detectives Are always on the TV 'Cos killers in America Work seven days a week

Never mind the stars and stripes Let's print the Watergate Tapes I'll salute the New Wave And I hope nobody escapes

I'm so bored with the U...S...A... But what can I do?

Move up Starsky For the C.I.A. Suck on Kojak For the USA
