The east coast is a woman

The mid-west is a man

And the west coast is the baby

They will never understand

And the south is where it

Wants to be

And America is hard to see



California's on the left

And Maine is on the right

Santa Fe stays up all day

And Chicago goes all night

Seattle's full of coffee

Boston's full of beans

And America is hard to see



First they saw it offshore

Then they took pictures from the moon

They haven't drawn it lifesize

But it's gonna happen soon

And you could watch ten years

Of Court Tv

To know

America is hard to see



And I sing this from my vantage point

Up here in the stars

And all I see is empty spaces

And cities full of cars

I'd change it all but

It's not up to me

Cos America is hard to see
