Band: That Handsome Devil

Album: That Handsome Devil

Song: 06 - Miss America

LYRICS:

Tommy stutters comically

When he says a lot of things

Mommy does the shopping

Daddy's digging through the laundry bins

He likes to try on Mommy's things

With his hair up in her bobby pins

The neighbors very neighborly

Occasionally taking peeks at his niece when she takes a pee

I heard the plumbers found a finger when they fixed the basement leak

So pick up the phone

Fix up your lawn

Turn the TV on

There's nothing wrong

Middle America - I love you

Old Mister Wilkinson killed a man

Drunk from the bar

Hit him with the front of his car

Drug him so far

There was nothing but parts

For hundreds of yards

Those thick damn power lines

Will drive you out your mind

Edna sits in the shower sometimes

For hours and cries

Whenever she forgets to tell Howard goodbye

So pick up the phone

Fix up your lawn

Turn the TV on

There's nothing wrong

Middle America - I love you

Smoking softly but

Mommy's body shook

Dropped the coffee cup

I guess the coffee wasn't strong enough

Becca was a quiet girl

Behind the wheel

With a mouth full of diet pills

A couple beers

And some stuff for your sinuses

Dancing in the fire

Smashing all of the appliances

The psychiatrist said "The Zoloft had some side effects"

So pick up the phone

Fix up your lawn

Turn the TV on

There's nothing wrong

Middle America - we love you

Pick up your phone

Fix up your lawn

Turn the TV on

There's nothing wrong

Miss America - we love you

(There are people who sit and wait their lives away on the promise of a dream that will not come. They are the sheep but here are also many, many more like us. We will not be pushed around.)

No. Had that been the case, the lyrics would've been more focused on society as a whole rather than what sounds like a typical american neighbourhood and its citizens and their flaws. I also don't think the 'I love you ' part is ironic, either. Just my two cents.

i think its actually about how fucked up society is and the status of america is spiraling down, but were are being told that nothing is wrong - how oblivious the citizens are. It hasnt a thing to with "loving something even in the presence of all of it's flaws."

I disagree, I think this song has more to do with the idea big government puts forth about "there's nothing wrong with the world", and that you shouldn't worry so much about it. When in reality, there are a lot of screwy things going on in this country that don't look quite right when put in the spotlight.
