Crashdog - History Lesson #1 lyrics

We built this country on "democracy" We stole this land through hypocricy We found ourselves some liberation And we hid our guilt on the reservation What we want we must possess It's time for us to take your address You cannot stop our progress Send your complaints to Congress We declared all men's equality While the blacks still lived in slavery They fought in wars for our cause But still couldn't vote by our laws We change the rule when we decide Our moral values are cast aside Your oppression is justified Cause we're the ones who preside Now it's 1994 Nothing's changed much from before We break promises left and right What we can't buy, we take by might Some would say we victimize But we just try to capitalize Your only hope we'll monopolize So we can build our enterprise It's all in your books All you need to do is take a look If you don't know what Our country's done Here's history lesson #1
