Miss America Lyrics - The Grand Illusion - Styx

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 that smile seem to wear you down 

Is the girl who you once were screaming to jump out 

And 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 

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 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 

Miss America, Miss America, Miss America 

Miss America, Miss America, Miss America 

Miss America, Miss America, Miss America
