Another song about falling in love with America

I could be wrong of course as most songs by you men involve not so much falling in love as expressing their love, which is certainly a good thing too.



At any rate Laura likes the song I Woke Up in a Car (by Something Corporate if you're curios).



It's a catchy little pop tune with nice crunchy chorus. Anyways I've heard it quite a few times as Laura really likes it. So I figured out what I think it's about.



It's about a young man pinpointing the moment he fell in love with America. Which is an admirable thing to be able to point to as most Americans just gradually realize they love this country and some don't really know if they love it or not. I suppose if I was pressed for I'd say it was about more specifically about a falling in love with the idea of America. Of course, if you ask the songwriter he'd probably say it was a song about getting laid and why his parents should get off his back. Which isn't really that much different to me, but what the hell do I know.



It is encouraging that a young band would write a song about something that didn't involve some aspect of their lives sucking. Nice little ditty.
