he was born diseased with a twisted mind 
his hands his feet his elbows tied 
sleeps by the day and in the night he crys 
the bastard son of a travelling man 
conceived and born in a caravan 
lives where he could and comes out when he can 
death of a rock star played by an actor 
gotta make a film 'cos he died in a fast car 
with lots of booze drugs and sex 
make him up a demi god invent all the rest 
like character john's been trying it on 
to get his picture in the news 
he took a leap from his pad 
the same place that his dad 
choked on a video so blue 

this is the land of the free tuning in to 6 15 
we'll always want but we'll never need on american tv 
searching for our liberty fight the fight to succeed 
living out the american dream on american tv 

v for victory u s of a 
always search for the american way 
take a bite of the big apple kick a coca cola can 
all stand up salute uncle sam 
put a man on the moon now aint too soon 
another russian spy puts a spanner in and boom 
from washington to tennessee 
we put the bullets in the kennedys
