The Ugly American Lyrics
I am the ugly American
I hate what I am
I am the ugly American
I hate what I am
I take a picture of your founding father
Take a picture of your local color
Take a picture of your founding father
Take a picture of your local color
We're so ugly, we're so ugly
We're so ugly
I am the ugly American
I am the ugly American
I am the ugly American
I hate what you are
Take a picture of your declassé
Take a picture and you only say
Take a picture of your ugly country
Take a picture and you only say
I am the ugly American
I am the ugly American
I am the ugly American
I hate what you are
Take a picture of your declassé
Take a picture of your declassé
Take a picture and you only say
Take a picture and you only say
We're so ugly, we're so ugly
We're so ugly
I am the ugly American
I know what I am
I am the ugly American
I'm what I am
You say you're cultured 'cause you had a king?
Your little boys sleep with their sisters!
I am the ugly American
Know what I am
I am the ugly American
Love what I am
