There was a song you used to play Before they drove you away But I remember every stroke Of every chord you played, eh-eh And in the room they gave the band I thought I heard you say That rock and roll's the perfect scam But it's a crime that doesn't pay, eh-eh 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 do fine ♪ And I've never prayed before But if it keeps the devil from your door I'll kneel down and bruise my knees On your hard linoleum floor 'Cause I thought I saw the light But it was just a satellite station Just another human creation Oh, where are we 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 do 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 do fine 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? 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? Where do we run to now? Where do we run to now?
