so much hatred in the U.S.A.
so much paranoia and suspicion

Joan of Arc in medieval France
Now that was quite a mission!

I walked along the Mediterranean
Barefoot in lovely Nice

I've know both cops and criminals
I like Sting and the Police

Not much to do, Nowhere to go
Mr. Markson blew me away

His books will live long past American Night
Into some unknown future's Day
