La canción Breakfast in America fue compuesta por Roger Hodgson y Rick Davies. La pista, que forma parte del álbum del mismo nombre lanzado por la banda Supertramp en 1979, habla de manera satírica sobre el deseo de visitar los Estados Unidos. La inspiración vino de Hodgson, quien reflexionó sobre su propia vida y sueños.
