UK Visa Versa - MC Lars.mp3

[00:00.588]Hey England... let's kick it.
[00:02.834]Cops without guns and the NME.
[00:05.081]Should I watch the BBC or should I watch the BBC?
[00:07.562]Look at these crazy coins, is this Lord of the Rings?
[00:10.148]Pounds and pence and Princes and Queens?
[00:12.395]Flipside experience, well not really.
[00:14.642]More familiar than Russia or Chile.
[00:17.123]Up for cricket or squash, or the London zoo?
[00:19.474]Look, you hate George Bush and we do too.
[00:22.008]Fab music scene, though, UK bands are ace,
[00:24.202]And you guys are the most polite of the human race.
[00:26.971]Fish and chips, crumpets, bangers and mash,
[00:29.453]Shakespeare, Donne, Sid Vicious and the Clash.
[00:31.856]You love our movies, we kind of like yours.
[00:34.286]We love the way you talk, "please help help us in these wars."
[00:36.820]You stopped staying "fab, " we stopped saying "groovy, "
[00:39.197]Our Scotland is Canada; you saw the South Park movie.
[00:41.600]I love England and visa versa,
[00:43.925]American perspective in these Visa verses.
[00:46.433]Tea time? Jolly good! Caffeine rush.
[00:48.496]Look, a red phone booth and a double-decker bus.
[00:51.213]I love you England, so let's both ignore
[00:53.616]The Boston Tea Party, and that silly East Coast war.
[00:56.098]Oxford, London, and Guildford too,
[00:58.449]Rockin' your P.A.'s when I come to visit you.
[01:00.904]The Florida incident? Democracy at work,
[01:03.229]But we've still got love for your boy Edmund Burke.
[01:05.659]If it weren't for us, you'd be speaking German,
[01:08.036]But then we gave you Hanson and Pee Wee Herman.
[01:10.570]You gave us the Beatles, and you gave us the Who
[01:12.921]We gave you Kris Kross and Vanilla Ice too.
[01:15.455]You gave us "Chicken Run" and the Teletubies,
[01:17.753]We gave you McDonald's and got you chubby.
[01:20.183]You think we're all Trailer Trash obnoxious and noisy.
[01:22.482]But that's just Springer, Ricki Lake, and Boise.
[01:25.146]We're friendly and fake and proud of our nation,
[01:27.549]Overweight, wasting gas, hedonic civilization.
[01:29.796]We're sue-happy mad overworked compulsive winners,
[01:32.225]Strong facade but insecure, just think Seymour Skinner.
[01:34.864]We're obsessed with image, old age and fat,
[01:37.241]Technology, death, and our dogs and cats,
[01:39.696]The superbowl, shopping, S.U.V.'s and money,
[01:41.995]Santa Claus, hygiene and the Easter Bunny.
[01:44.529]But bigger is better and we love our T.V.
[01:46.775]From L.A. to Boston, to Nashville, Tennessee.
[01:49.440]And yes 1/4 of Americans own guns
[01:51.817]In case you come back to punish your sons.
[01:54.273]But Mother Britain listen, there's still a tie that binds us,
[01:56.702]The U.S. isn't perfect, you don't have to remind us.
[01:59.131]I love England and visa versa,
[02:01.535]American perspective in these Visa verses.
