Styx Miss America lyrics

You were the apple of the publics eye
As you cut the ribbon at the local mall
A mirage for both you and us, well how can it be real?
We love your body in that photograph
Your home state sure must be proud
The queen of the United States or have you lost your crown

Well aren't you Miss America
Don't you Miss America
Won't you Miss America
Our love

Well are you really who we think you are?
Or does your smile seem to wears you down
This is girl that you once were is screaming to jump out
The dream that you must live
A disease for which there is no cure
This roller coaster ride you're on won't stop to let you off

Well aren't you Miss America
Don't you Miss America
Won't you Miss America
Our love
[Incomprehensible]


Miss America, Miss America, Miss America
Miss America, Miss America, Miss America

Well aren't you Miss America
Don't you Miss America
Won't you Miss America
Our love

Well it's true you just take a look
The cover sometimes makes the book
And the judges, do they ever ask to read between your lines?
In your cage at the human zoo
They all stop to look at you
Next year, what will you do, when you have been forgotten?

Well aren't you Miss America
Don't you Miss America
Won't you Miss America
Our love
