There's 8 million stories in every city And Americans love to watch it on TV There's gays, lesbians, stripper nymphos Teenage prostitutes, husbands gone psycho The haters hate it 'cause it's too hot for TV But America rules, nasty as we wanna be Always #1 across the land So don't hate Jerry 'cause he's the man! With more fight time than HBO And even Don King should promote talk shows It't the best thing in years to hit the TV 'Cause America's rowdy-rowdy like Master P Players everywhere love a good talk show 'Cause the hoochies get naked like a 2 Live show So always represent the American way: Freedom of speech and always gettin' paid!
Chorus: [Living in America!] [Living in America!] (All the time, station to station) [Living in America!] (Here to here, across the nation) [Living in America!] (Got to have a celebration)
Verse 2: Brother Marquis
The ghetto got me caught up in some talk show shhhhh Now I'm on TV to find that my girl was a trick She did my main man, plus my own band I had to take a stand and beat the trick bad Two sisters, that were doin' the two brothers Now they fight 'cause they was doin' each other The girl posin' nude used to be a dude Outcasted from the family, now they startin' a feud The man cheatin' on his wife got caught last night 'Cause the girl he was kissin' was a transvestite Got caught on TV where it's too late to fight Now the whole world knows about his secret life 50-year-old mom, dressed him like a hoochie The hoodrat pulls a gat on the groupie Too hot for TV, too much for the movies Some lady smacked Jerry, say what? Sue me!
Chorus
Bridge:
(Miami! Atlanta G.A.! Chicago! And L.A.! Houston! And New York City! And don't forget - Cincinnatti!) [I live in America!] [I live in America!]
Verse 3 [Kid Ice] No matter how you feel, the stories are real Showin' the world how Americans feel With home-grown topics and a final thought They even got hoochies without their bras Of all the talk shows he's the best by far ... {Instrumental where there should be a verse} So set your VCR's if you got to go, 'Cause you're living in America with the Springer show! [Marquis] At the sound of the bell that goes Aw Hell!, Another knock down, another video sale All problems solved, all matters scarred A girl got knocked out her chair upside the wall More hair-pullin', nail-bitin' and people fightin' I love this show because it's so excitin' The people believe what they really see On tabloid TV, even me!
