American Noise

Angry words and honking cars

Satellites and falling stars

Distant dark blue radios that whisper down my boulevards

Ghosts and chains rattle in the attic

Broken headphones filled with static

Lonely room you’ve got nowhere to run

3, 2, 1 for all and all for 1

Times will be bad, times will be good

Things I wish I hadn’t done and some I wish I would

Cutting through the American noise

You’ve got a voice and a song to sing (and a song to sing)

Drink deep in the morning

Drink deep in the morning

See what the day will bring

La da da da

Lift up your voice

Let love cut through the American noise

La da da da

Lift up your voice

Let love cut through the American noise

Slamming doors and cell phone rings

Hurricane force of silent screams

Don’t know what to believe

Bend the rule just to break it

You're so tired 'cause you're gotta fake it

But you just wanna be someone

3, 2, 1 for all and all for 1

Times will be bad, times will be good

Things I wish I hadn’t done and some I wish I would

Cutting through the American noise

You’ve got a voice and a song to sing (and a song to sing)

Drink deep in the morning

Drink deep in the morning

See what the day will bring

La da da da

Lift up your voice

Let love cut through the American noise

La da da da

Lift up your voice

Let love cut through the American noise

No matter who you are you’ve got a voice

Why don’t you use it

Sing your own song take all the noise

And make it into music

La da da da

La da da da

La da da daaaa

La da da da

La da da da

La da da daaaaaaa

La da da da lift up your voice

Let love cut through the American noise

La da da da you have a choice

Let love cut through the American noise

You’ve got a voice

Let love cut through the American noise
