As I look upon the empty walls Of the home I'm leaving I turn off the light and close the door With the bag I'm taking
And all my friends say they approve They say "it's gonna be so good for you" And I don't have it all figured out quite yet I'm still trying to find my way
And I must have a Union Jack wrapped around my wrist And a sign on my back saying I'm English Cos wherever I go the folks are all grinning Saying "welcome to America"
So I pick up the keys to a broken down Jeep But that is not how it was sold to me My phone company says the don't trust me On acocount of my foreign residency
The land of oppoutunity The place where all your refills come for free
And I must have a Union Jack wrapped around my wrist And a sign on my back saying I'm English Cos wherever I go the folks are all grinning Saying "welcome to America"
Just walking around they know that I'm from out of state The way that I talk must be completely out of place Wherever I go the folks are all grinning Saying "welcome to America"
Officer I did not know what a car-pool was Cos we don't have them back home My bank tells me I'm not credit worthy Till I prove what I can earn I've got so much left to learn
But as I look upon the empty walls Of the home I live in
I must have a Union Jack wrapped around my wrist And a sign on my back saying I'm English Cos wherever I go the folks are all grinning Saying "welcome to America"
Just walking around they know that I'm from out of state The way that I talk must be completely out of place Wherever I go the folks are all grinning Saying "welcome to America"
