America
Bowling for Soup Lyrics

Woop woop
An exclamation to express excitement or joy.

America, a beautiful girl
Referring to the United States as a country, which is often portrayed as a beautiful and desirable place to live.

A gift to the world from outside of town
The United States, as a western country, is seen as being a leader in democracy and a champion of freedom.

Train wreck with unbelievable skin
Despite some of the obvious flaws and problems that America has been facing in recent years, the outward appearance of the country is still desirable.

Hey where have you been? We haven't seen you around
A rhetorical question that implies that the recent controversial policies and actions of the US have caused the country to be less appreciated by other countries.

You know you don't have to be so mean
America is often seen as a country that is aggressive and mean in its dealings with other countries.

We hear loud and clear when you say
Other countries are paying attention to the actions and words of the US.

That you don't give a woop woop
A mocking expression that implies the US doesn't care about what other countries think of them.

America, she bullies at school
The US is often criticised for its aggressive foreign policy and tendency to initiate military interventions in other countries.

Her parents were cool but now she's out on her own
The US was once seen as a young, vibrant and promising country that had the potential to be a global leader; now it is seen as a country that is overreaching and struggling to maintain its place in the world.

Happiness as long as she's right
The US tends to feel that it is always right in its foreign policy decisions, and that it is the only country that has the power and authority to make important decisions in the world.

Yeah she's good to fight yeah she's looking kinda rough
The US has been involved in many global conflicts, and some of the recent conflict situations have taken their toll, resulting in economic and political difficulties.

She says just recognise, recognise
Recognize the power of the US.

Cuz she don't give a woop woop
The US is self-assured and confident in its power and ability to influence the world.

Wake up America I don't wanna fight anymore (wake up America, wake up America)
A plea to the US to take a more conciliatory approach towards other countries in order to avoid conflicts.

Now pick yourself off the floor
Start acting responsibly, fixing your own problems, and take the necessary steps to regain influence and reputation.

America, she lost all her friends
The US has seen its power and influence wane in recent years, with other countries becoming more influential and successful.

The fun never ends until you buy your own beer
The US is still seen as a place where there are opportunities and endless possibilities, but that everyone has to work hard to achieve success.

Rehab so bitter and wired
The US has been undergoing major economic and political changes, and these changes have been a difficult adjustment for the country.

So used up and tired yeah you're looking pretty rough
The US has suffered from economic downturns and political scandal, and this has taken a toll on the country.

Wake up Amy your alarm clock's beeping
An analogy to describe the awakening of the US to the changing global landscape, and the need to adapt and change in order to remain competitive and relevant.

Now pick yourself off the floor
Take the necessary actions to fix the problems.

Wake up America I don't wanna fight anymore
The US needs to take a more conciliatory and cooperative approach to foreign policy in order to avoid conflicts and maintain positive relationships with other countries.
