[" " CD]

Yeah, uh! Get up, now! Ow! Knock out this!

Super highways, coast to coast,

easy to get anywhere

On the transcontinental overload,

just slide behind the wheel

How does it feel

When there's no destination - that's too far

And somewhere on the way,

you might find out who you are

Living in America - eye to eye, station to station

Living in America - hand to hand, across the nation

Living in America - got to have a celebration

Rock my soul

Smokestack, fatback,

many miles of railroad track

All night radio, keep on runnin'

through your rock 'n' roll soul

All night diners keep you awake,

hey, on black coffee and a hard roll

You might have to walk the fine line,

you might take the hard line

But everybody's working overtime

Living in America - eye to eye, station to station

Living in America - hand to hand, across the nation

Living in America - got to have a celebration

I live in America, help me out,

but I live in America,

wait a minute

You might not be looking for the promised land,

but you might find it anyway

Under one of those old familiar names

Like New Orleans (New Orleans),

Detroit City (Detroit City), Dallas (Dallas)

Pittsburg P.A. (Pittsburg P.A.),

New York City (New York City)

Kansas City (Kansas City),

Atlanta (Atlanta), Chicago and L.A.

Living in America - hit me

Living in America - yeah,

I walk in and out

Living in America

I live in America - state lines,

gonna make the prime, that

I live in America - hey,

I know what it means, I

Living in America - Eddie Murphy, eat your heart out

Living in America - hit me, I said now, eye to eye,

station to station

Living in America - so nice, with your bare self

Living in America - I feel good!

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
