Lyrics
You were the apple of the public's eye
as you cut the ribbon at the local mall
A mirage for both you and us. 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 wear you down
This girl who you once were is screaming jump out
It's a 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
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 just take a look - The cover sometimes makes the book
And the judges, do they ever ask
to read between your lines
And your cage at the human zoo,
they all stop to look at you
Next year, what will you do
when you have been forgotten
Aren't you Miss America
Don't you Miss America
Won't you Miss America
Our love
Miss America, Miss America, Miss America,
Miss America, Miss America, Miss America,
Miss America, Miss America, Miss America,
Miss America, Miss America,
