[They Might Be Giants - Mainstream U.S.A. lyrics]

As I rode the subway this morning
(can I have this last dance, my darling?)

There was a man with a book beside me
(can I have this last dance with you?)

And he tapped out rhythms with
A smile on his face
(I wanna dance the whole night tonight)

And the tip of his finger
(can I have this last dance, my darling?)

That he found on the floor
(can I have this last dance with you?)

And these are the words that he
Told the fellow next door

Mainstream USA i flipped that guy the bird
Mainstream USA it's all I wanna say

Mainstream USA i flipped that guy the bird
Mainstream USA it's all I wanna say

We are the world (back off, boogaloo)
We are (I'm talking)
We are the world (back off, boogaloo)

Mainstream USA i flipped that guy the bird
Mainstream USA it's all I wanna say

Mainstream USA i flipped that guy the bird
Mainstream USA it's all I wanna say
