"First World Citizen" lyrics - GANG OF FOUR

GANG OF FOUR
"First World Citizen"
(Andy Gill / Catherine Mayer)
feat. Gail Ann Dorsey

She walked out of the station in flames
Crossed over the 38th parallel, hitched, made a ride to the west

[Pre-Chorus:]
Big appetites, those American guys
Chew up whatever the dollar buys

[Chorus:]
To be a first world citizen
To be a first world citizen

She will take up all your checks, no respect
I will work all the hours in the day
When they say "jump," they wanna hear "how high?"

[Pre-Chorus:]
I have lost everything
Didn't ask for anything
I would take anything, anything at all

[Chorus:]
To be a first world citizen
To be a first world citizen

[Pre-Chorus:]
I have lost everything
Didn't ask for anything
I would take anything, anything at all

[Chorus:]
To be a first world citizen
To be a first world citizen
To be a first world citizen
To be a first world citizen
