Lost in America Lyrics
I can't get a girl cuz I ain't got a car
I can't get a car cuz I ain't got a job
I can't get a job cuz I ain't got a car
So I'm looking for a girl with a job and a car
Don't you know where you are
Lost in America
Lost in America
Lost in America, lost
I got a mom but I ain't got a dad
My dad's got a wife but she ain't my mom
Mom's looking for a man to be my dad
But I want my mom and dad to be my real mom and dad
Is that so bad?
Oh, I think I've been had
Lost in America
Lost in America
Lost in America, lost
Lost in America
Lost in America
Lost in America, lost
Well, I live at the Se7en Eleven
Well, I'm tryin' to play this guitar
Well, I'm learning "Stairway to Heaven"
Cuz Heaven's where you are
I can't get a car cuz I ain't got a job
I can't get a job cuz I ain't got a car
So I'm looking for a girl with a job and a car
Don't you know where you are
Lost in America
Lost in America
Lost in America, lost
I got a mom but I ain't got a dad
My dad's got a wife but she ain't my mom
Mom's looking for a man to be my dad
But I want my mom and dad to be my real mom and dad
Is that so bad?
Oh, I think I've been had
Lost in America
Lost in America
Lost in America, lost
Lost in America
Lost in America
Lost in America, lost
Well, I live at the Se7en Eleven
Well, I'm tryin' to play this guitar
Well, I'm learning "Stairway to Heaven"
Cuz Heaven's where you are
I can't go to school cuz I ain't got a gun
I ain't got a gun cuz I ain't got a job
I ain't got a job cuz I can't go to school
So I'm looking for a girl with a gun and a job
And a house with cable!
Don't you know where you are
Hey man, you're
Lost in America
Lost in America
Lost in America, lost
Lost in America
Lost in America
Lost in America, lost
Lost in America
Lost in America
Lost in America, lost
Lost in America
Lost in America
Lost, lost, lost, lost
(Uh, uh uh uhh)
Lost, lost, lost, lost
(Uh huh uh huh)
Lost, lost, lost, lost
(Yeah-heah-heah-hey)
Lost, lost, lost, lost
(A-hey-hey hey hey hey)
Lost, lost, lost, lost
(A-duh-duh duh duh duh)
Lost, lost, lost, lost
(Oh yeah I'm lost)
I ain't got a gun cuz I ain't got a job
I ain't got a job cuz I can't go to school
So I'm looking for a girl with a gun and a job
And a house with cable!
Don't you know where you are
Hey man, you're
Lost in America
Lost in America
Lost in America, lost
Lost in America
Lost in America
Lost in America, lost
Lost in America
Lost in America
Lost in America, lost
Lost in America
Lost in America
Lost, lost, lost, lost
(Uh, uh uh uhh)
Lost, lost, lost, lost

Lost, lost, lost, lost
(Yeah-heah-heah-hey)
Lost, lost, lost, lost
(A-hey-hey hey hey hey)
Lost, lost, lost, lost
(A-duh-duh duh duh duh)
Lost, lost, lost, lost
(Oh yeah I'm lost)

Genius Annotation
At this point in the album, Steven sings about his personal life and how he can’t have anything he wants because he can’t have what he needs. In the comic book, Steven watches in the audience as a puppet version of him says these things on stage.
In the song’s music video, video clips representing the lyrics are seen, along with panels from the comic book. The comic book is also seen being read by a young boy (possibly Steven).
