Big American Problem

Chorus:

I've got a big american problem

Somethin' that I cannot solve by myself

I've got a big american problem

Somethin' that I need some help from the shelf



Way down in somalia

Where the starving children play

Where our soldiers are sittin' around

Wonderin' just what to do with the day

There are many people in the hills

And the hills have eyes

There is someone that waits for me

Like a spider waits for a fly



Chorus:

I've got a big american problem

Somethin' that I cannot solve by myself

I've got a big american problem

Somethin' that I better take off the shelf



In sarajevo, there's lots of people standin'

Standin' there in the street, waitin' for you

Someone's comin' down to give them the answers

« and if they'd know just what they don't want to do »



Chorus:

I've got a big american problem

Somethin' that I cannot solve by myself

I've got a big american problem

« we'd better take that book from the shelf »



Have you got a big american problem too?

Somethin' that you cannot solve by yourself

Have you got a big american problem too?

Somethin' that you cannot solve by yourself?



I've got a big american problem (x4)

A problem! problem! problem! a problem! a problem!
