America
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
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

and if you don't love her, fuck you
Our human rights record is something of note
