Words and music by roddy frame





Stuck in my beat suede shoes i can't wait,

Oh what a state to be in.

I need her heart and get a jack-jones for my sins,

She's gonna ditch that shining, sick machine

And be speeding straight my way.

But i'm churning in neutral, turning in a circle,

Just like the usa.



The secret is silver, it's to shine and never simply survive

And don't swallow substitutes and never see second prize.

'cos i know that my might could change my mind,

And i'm told that by rights it's not my find.

I'd be a tribute to temptation in it's glory and it's grave,

But i'm churning in neutral, turning in a circle,

Just like the usa.



The secret is silver, it's to shine and never simply survive

And don't swallow substitutes and never see second prize.

'cos i know that my might could change my mind,

And i'm told that by rights it's not my find.

I'd be a tower to your highest hopes,

That no southern star could sway,

But i'm churning in neutral, turning in a circle,

Just like the usa.



I hear those rhyming bells and heed the words they say,

And with a string of diamelles i'll steal her heart away.



'cos i know that my might could change my mind,

And i'm told that by rights it's not my find.

In my star-bangled sailor suit,

I'd be the pioneer by day,

But i'm churning in neutral, turning in a circle,

Just like the usa.
