Warped Tour Compilation - 'merican- Descendents lyrics

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
