Rotting from the innards out   Another decade and they’re vanishing   What is it to you? What is it to me?   There’s nothing we can do so I’ll just leave it the same      Stolen from our sight and mind   Swept under the rug, no shame   Oblivious to the poverty   And we’re the ones to blame      Consumers venerate   The power to take away   It’s burning ever closer   Killing them everyday      The pleasure to disregard it   Those children feel the sting   Conversely we forget them   With every passing day   They‘ll never go away   And here we stay      {Oh-OH-oH}   Selfish Americans   {Oh-OH-oH}   Selfish Americans   {Oh-OH-oH}      Recognize their plight   Take a look at them   We take for granted our God given freedom   They’ve got nothing our there      We need to lend an unselfish hand   Commit ourselves to serve   There’s so much we have, we don’t know what to do   And the answer's already there      {Oh-OH-oH}   Selfish Americans   {Oh-OH-oH}   Selfish Americans   {Oh-OH-oH}   Selfish Americans
