no world mindset

Lon­don fog was Lon­don smog.
Cal­i­for­nia dreamin’ turned out to be a gold­en trip.
Rocky Moun­tain high was le­gal.
A New York Minute is cur­rent­ly un­der in­ves­ti­ga­tion.

The Great Oz has left the Emer­ald City.
Port­land is­n’t weird any­more.
Brook­lyn was gen­tri­fied by Air B&B.
San Fran­cis­co left its heart in 1969.

Some­thing is rot­ten in the state of Michigan’s wa­ter sup­ply.
The Big Easy lost its cool af­ter Un­cle Sam re­fused to vis­it but Big Dad­dy BP re­fused to leave. Wash­ing­ton (D)idn’t ©hange in 2008 it just bought in.

Chi­na is my cosign­er.
The EU is my cowork­er.
Rus­sia is my old ri­val.
Cana­da is the neigh­bor I ig­nore.

I re­port­ed Mex­i­co to my neigh­bor­hood watch.
I bor­row Cen­tral Amer­i­ca’s lawn mow­er but I refuse to give it back.
Ecuador is my wa­ter well.

The Mid­dle East is my gas sta­tion.
Japan is my tech re­tail­er.
In­dia is my tech sup­port.
And Africa is the part of town I avoid.

I’m a first world man with a no world mind­set.
