| Hello Amsterdam, my name is Fernando
Hello Amsterdam, I bet you've seen my kind before Another sad tourist with his eyes rolling in his head Another sad tourist who never had a drink before Hello Amsterdam you didnt like my Waterloo Hello Amsterdam I wish I had something to offer you Tail between my leg I crawl back to the canal All alone with my eyes rolling like the moon Superstar There once was a white elephant that escaped from the zoo Got to the big city and didnt know what to do Had a sticker on his shirt that said, hello my name is unclean I swear they would have liked us if wed played Dancing Queen Hello Amsterdam, don't I look cool in my white shirt Hello Amsterdam, don't I look hip in my red tie We came from America so you could share in the pride Guilt, greed, and genocide Superstar |
