Lyrics The Divine Comedy

The Divine Comedy

U.S.E.

Oh the Germans, can't they ever lose?

Well, they've got all the money and none of the blues

Well, they've got fancy cars and they drive real fast

Because there's no speed limit on the autobahns

Well, is you in or is you ain't

A true blue citizen lying in wait

For the United States of Europe?

Go to France but prepare to hike

Because the roads are closed with another strike

Well, they laugh at Charlie and our royal heirs

Yeah, but they're only jealous 'cause they killed all theirs

Well, is you in or is you ain't

A doomsday prophet or a patron saint

Of the United States of Europe?

Those Italians think they're so damn cool

Because they don't wear helmets and they drive like fools

With their slicked back hair and their Gucci shades

With a brand new government every day

Well, is you is or is you ain't

Or are you just resigned to your fate

In the United States of Europe?
