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
A nation dedicated to liberty
Does it look that way to you?
It doesn't look that way to me
Listen up man, I'll tell you who I am
Just another stupid american
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
But it's a land of the slaves and the ku klux klan
Haymarket riot and the great depression
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
