[Verse 1]
I'm in a car
And I'm over you
I'm a passenger
And I'm over you

[Chorus]
I'm looking for America
I'm looking for you
I'm looking for America
I'm looking for you

[Verse 2]
I'm in a glasshouse
And I'm over you
I'm thin, far too thin
And I'm over you
I'm in a corner
And I'm over you
I'm old, far too old
And I'm over you

[Chorus]
I'm looking for America
I'm looking for you
I'm looking for America
I'm looking for you

[Bridge]
I'm in the car of life
I'm in the car of life
I'm in the car of life
I'm in the car of life

[Chorus]
I'm looking for America
I'm looking for you
I'm looking for America
I'm looking for you
I'm looking for America
I'm looking for you
I'm looking for America
I'm looking for you
I'm looking for America
I'm looking for you
I'm looking for America
I'm looking for you
