America Lyrics

This Is Not America - The Song

Words and music by David Bowie and Pat
Metheny.



This is not America, sha la la la la



A
little piece of you

The little peace in me

Will die [This is not a
miracle]

For this is not America



Blossom fails to bloom

This season

Promise not to stare

Too long [This is not
America]

For this is not the miracle



There was a time

A storm that blew so pure

For this could be the biggest sky

And I
could have

The faintest idea



[For this is not America, sha la
la la la, sha la la la la, sha la la la la

This is not america, no, this
is not, sha la la la la]



Snowman melting

From the inside

Falcon spirals

To the ground [This could be the biggest sky]

So
bloody red

Tomorrow's clouds



A little piece of you

The
little piece in me

Will die [This could be a miracle]

For this is
not America



There was a time

A wind that blew so young

For this could be the biggest sky

And I could have the faintest
idea



[For this is not America, sha la la la la, sha la la la la,
sha la la la la

This is not america, no, this is not, sha la la la

This is not america, no, this is not

This is not america, no, this is
not, sha la la la]
