There was a song you used to play
Before they drove you away
But I remember every stroke
Of every chord you played
In the room they gave the band
I thought I heard you say
That rock 'n' roll's the perfect scare
There's a crime that doesn't pay
But for mistress America
I'm gonna get a gun
And learn the words to all of your songs
Mistress America, smile for the camera
I think we're gonna make it this time
Think we're gonna be fine
And I had never prayed before
But if it keeps the devil from your door
I'll kneel down and bruise my knees
And with your hard magnolia floors
'Cause I thought I saw the light
But it was just a satellite station
Just another human creation
Where you gonna run to now?
Oh, well mistress America
I'm gonna get a gun
And learn the words to all of your songs
Mistress America, smile for the camera
I think we're gonna make it this time
Think we're gonna be fine
Where do we run to now?
Where do we run to now?
Where do we run to now?
Oh, well mistress America
I'm gonna get a gun
And learn the words to all of your songs
Mistress America, smile for the camera
I think we're gonna make it this time
Think we're gonna be fine
Where do we run to now?
Where do we run to now?
Where do we run to now?
Where de we run to now?
Where do we run to now?
Where do we run to now?
Where do we run to now?
Where do we run to now?
Where do we run to now?
