want to pledge allegiance to the country where I live    I don't want to be ashamed to be American    But opportunity no, it don't exist    It's the opiate of the populace    We need some harder shit now    The truth is getting around    And each public school is a halfway house    Where the huddled masses sober up and up enough    There's not enough to fatten the cows    And feed all of us    It's just a rationing of luck    What can't be bought gets raffled off    Oh God good God shed greed on thee    Your shining sea turned a dirty green    From the industry off the shores of New Jersey    I got a letter from the army    So I think that I'll enlist    I'm not brave or proud of nothing    I just want to kill something    Too bad that now-a-days you just point and click    Swing low satellite    Hot white chariot!    In the computer's blue glare    The bombs burst in the air    There was a city once now nothing is there    Our freedom comes at their expense    It makes sense does it dollars and centers    They're stretching barbed wire across the picket fence    That is surrounding your housing development    Just in case you lack the confidence    Oh God my God give strength to thee    These amber waves purple majesty    Are nothing but backdrops for Disney    We'll look up close    It is superimposed on a blank blue screen    It is fantasy fucking magical    The dreams floats like a chemical    Through each snapped synapse our television past    That is beautiful no more, no more
