'Merican |
We flipped our finger to the king of England |
Stole our country from the Indians |
With God on our side and guns in our hands |
We took it for our own |
A nation dedicated to liberty |
Justice and equality |
Does it look that way to you? |
It doesn’t look that way to me |
The sickest joke I know |
Listen up man, I’ll tell you who I am |
Just another stupid American |
You don’t wanna listen |
You don’t wanna understand |
So finish up your drink and go home |
I come from the land of Ben Franklin |
Twain and Poe and Walt Whitman |
Otis Redding, Ellington |
The country that I love |
But it’s a land of the slaves and the Ku Klux Klan |
Haymarket riot and the Great Depression |
Joe McCarthy, Vietnam |
The sickest joke I know |
Listen up man, I’ll tell you who I am |
Just another stupid American |
You don’t wanna listen |
You don’t wanna understand |
So finish up your drink and go home |
I’m proud and ashamed |
Every Fourth of July |
You got to know the truth |
Before you say that you got pride |
Now the cops got tanks, 'cause the kids got guns |
Shrinks pushin' pills on everyone |
Cancer from the ocean, cancer from the sun |
Straight to Hell we go |
Listen up man, I’ll tell you who I am |
Just another stupid American |
You don’t wanna listen |
You don’t wanna understand |
So finish up your drink and go home |
Listen up man, I’ll tell you who I am |
Just another stupid American |
You don’t wanna listen |
You don’t wanna understand |
So finish up your drink and go home |
Finish up your drink and go home |
