America

Lyrics

Hey Hey What do you say
 I come from a place called the US of A
 Ho Ho What do you know
 Hop in my car and let's go
 Well, This is a song for America
 Home of the red, white and blue
 Land of Marilyn Monroe and James Dean
 Apple pie, baseball and Shell gasoline
 and if you don't love her, fuck you
 Beloved by all from Tikrit to Beijing
 If the world were a school we'd be homecoming king
 Worshipped by France and by North Vietnam
 Afghanistan thinks we're the bomb
 Oh, This is a song for America
 Home of the red, white and blue
 Land of Marilyn Monroe and James Dean
 Apple pie, baseball and Shell gasoline
 SUV's, handguns and US magazine
 and if you don't love her, fuck you
 Our human rights record is something of note
 We freed all our slaves and gave women the vote
 Everyone's equal forever, always
 Unless you're one of them gays
 Oh, This is a song for America
 Home of the red, white and blue
 Land of Marilyn Monroe and James Dean
 Apple pie, baseball and Shell gasoline
 SUV's, handguns and US magazine
 Low carb diets and fast food cuisine
 and if you don't love her, fuck you
 To all war torn nations, to those in turmoil
 We'll help you kill despots we'll help you drill oil
 And if you don't want our help, that's okay
 We're coming in anyway
 Oh, This is a song for America
 Home of the red, white and blue
 Land of Marilyn Monroe and James Dean
 Apple pie, baseball and Shell gasoline
 SUV's, handguns and US magazine
 Low carb diets and fast food cuisine
 Crack cocaine, Abu Ghraib and nicotine
 Swindling CEOs getting off clean
 Housewives all hopped up on amphetamine
 Nipples get rated NC-17
 FEMA and levies and Hurricane Katrine
 George Bush's great rolling war machine
 I think we're in trouble don't you
 It might seem I don't think our country's so great
 But intolerance, bigotry, greed's what I hate
 Most folks are honest and decent and true
 Peaceful, compassionate, good through and through
 That's what it means to be red, white and blue
 and if you don't think so, fuck you
 if you don't think so, fuck you
