"Big In America" lyrics - THE STRANGLERS

I met a roach in America
His family had a massive tree

They live just about everywhere -
He was big in America
He was big in America.

I met a vet in America
He was alive
He was in overdrive

He'd just been around everywhere -
He was big in America
He was big in America.

And when you're big in America you like to live in America -
You won't be on your own -
And since you're big in America
You might as well make America your home.
Big in America!

I met a girl in America
She wore the pants
Cross the big expanse

She was whipping men everywhere -
She was big in America
She was big in America.

And when you're big in America you like to live in America -
Big in America!
Big in America!
Big in America!
