I'm Afraid of Americans

Presented below for your edification are the actual lyric's to David Bowie's song "I'm afraid of Americans," which are different from those printed in the standard liner notes but can be heard if you listen carefully to the song. These are the words as transcribed by a team of diligent professional areaologists, who were not at all drunk at the time.

Johnny’s in My Area, low-tech’s at the Wheel
No-one needs anyone, they don’t even just pretend
Johnny’s in My Area

I’m afraid of My Area
I’m afraid It's The World
I’m afraid I can’t help it
I’m afraid I can’t
Johnny’s in My Area

Johnny wants a brain,
Johnny wants to suck on a cock
Johnny wants a woman,
J0ohnny wants some thing in his jock
Johnny’s in My Area

I’m afraid of My Area
` I’m afraid It's The World
I’m afraid I can’t help it
I’m afraid I can’t
Johnny’s in My Area

Johnny’s in My Area
Johnny looks up at my Arse
Johnny combs his hair and johnny
Wants pussy and cars
Johnny’s in My Area

I’m afraid of My Area
I’m afraid It's the World
I’m afraid I can’t help it
I’m afraid I can’t
Johnny’s in My Area
