Breakfast in America

Day 46

--STATS--

Group: Supertramp

Genre: Rock

Album: Breakfast in America

Released: 1979



Take a look at my girlfriend
She's the only one I got
Not much of a girlfriend
Never seem to get a lot

Take a jumbo across the water
Like to see America
See the girls in California
I'm hoping it's going to come true
But there's not a lot I can do

Could we have kippers for breakfast
Mummy dear, mummy dear
They got to have 'em in Texas
'Cause everyone's a millionaire

I'm a winner, I'm a sinner
Do you want my autograph
I'm a loser, what a joker
I'm playing my jokes upon you
While there's nothing better to do

Don't you look at my girlfriend
She's the only one I got
Not much of a girlfriend
Never seem to get a lot

Take a jumbo cross the water
Like to see America
See the girls in California
I'm hoping it's going to come true
But there's not a lot I can do

Nan nan nan nan nan...

OK, so another Supertramp song. I never realized I liked so many of their songs ( or singles at least.) Though I'm not really sure I like their attitude towards women. "Not much of a girlfriend"? They must have some serious issues in relationships as far as I can tell. This is just a song I liked grwoing up that played on the classic rock station that use to be on. Oh how I miss that station. Gym Class Heroes did a remix of this song that is interesting....
Fact: Most people think this song is called "Take a look at my girlfriend", & have a hard time finding it on any album. That would be why. Mystery solved. Glad I could help.
