America Lyrics

The spirit was freedom and justice

Its keepers seemed generous and kind

Its leaders were supposed to serve the country

Now they don't pay it no mind

Cause the people grew fat and got lazy

Now their vote is a meaningless joke

They babble about law and order

But it's just an echo of what they've been told

Yes, a monster's on the loose

Its put our heads into the noose

And just sits there watching

The cities have turned into jungles

And corruption is wrangling the land

The police force is watching the people

And the people just can't understand

We don't know how to mind our own business

The whole world has to be just like us

Now we are fighting a war over there

No matter who's the winner we can't pay the cost

Yes, a monster's on the loose

Its put our heads into the noose

And just sits there watching
