The US is worldly as hell
Te estoy hablando a ti
Toi, qui penses que nous sommes stupides
Here in North America
Hablamos tres idiomas
Combien de langues parles-tu?
By three I refer to the most common ones
Porque hay muchos más
Comme tu le sais
Anyway, this is about the World Cup
El torneo debería jugarse aqui
C’est logique
Because the world already lives here
Italianos, Alemanes, los de Irlanda
La moitié de l’Asie vit ici
There are way more Chinese restaurants than McDonald’s
Prefiero comer sopa agridulce que una Big Mac
Et n’oublie pas les samoussas
If you think you understand this place based on the news
No tienes ni idea de lo que hablas
C’est la vérité
No one even knows what American means
Aparte de vivir aqui
Et c’est le meilleur aspect
There are no rules
Excepto las que hay que romper
La tradition n’est qu’une façade
Sure we’re full of idiots
¿Pero no es cierto en todas partes?
Je viens de visiter Paris—je sais
Our leader is a lunatic
¿No son todos?
Justin Trudeau et Katy Perry?!
Yeah we eat too much and die young
¿Quien quiere vivir para siempre?
Je vais chez Buc-ee’s
So quit reading the damn headlines
Experimenta el país po ti mismo
Dis-moi ce que tu en penses
If you hate the place
No estarás solo
C’est une passion nationale
Just remember—the US is worldly as hell
Y el mundo es un lugar feo
Oú est-il beau?
English Translation
The US is worldly as hell
I’m talking to you
You, who thinks we’re stupid
Here in North America
We speak three languages
How many languages do you speak?
And by three, I mean the most common ones
Because there are many more
As you know
Anyway, this is about the World Cup
The tournament should be played here
It makes sense
Because the world already lives here
Italians, Germans, the Irish
Half of Asia lives here
There are more Chinese restaurants than McDonald’s
I’d rather eat hot and sour soup than a Big Mac
And don’t forget the samosas
If you think you understand this place based on the news
You have no idea what you’re talking about
That’s the truth
No one even knows what American means
Other than living here
And that’s the best part
There are no rules
Except the ones meant to be broken
Tradition is just a façade
Sure, we’re full of idiots
But isn’t that true everywhere?
I just visited Paris—I know
Our leader is a lunatic
Aren’t they all?
Justin Trudeau and Katy Perry?!
Yeah, we eat too much and die young
Who wants to live forever?
I’m going to Buc-ee’s
So quit reading the damn headlines
Experience the country for yourself
Tell me what you think
If you hate the place
You won’t be alone
It’s a national pastime
Just remember—the US is worldly as hell
And the world is an ugly place
Or is it beautiful?
