Verse 1
It's Our Two-Hundred-Fiftieth Birthday
Wish I Could Say I'm Proud Of What We've Become
But When I Look Around, And See All These Clowns
Fucking It Up, It Makes Me Come Undone
How Did We End Up Here? It Brings A Man To Tears.
Maybe We Should Tear The Whole Thing Down
Verse 2
How The Hell Can You Act Like This Is Normal
I Swear On My Life, The Gullible Have Been Tricked
Some People Telling Me, To Just Let It Be
Easy To Say When Your Not The Dog Being Kicked
What Should We Do, Well Just Between Me And You
The Wrong Thing Is Sit Back To Wait And See
Verse 3
So Waive Your American Flag If You Want To
Crack Open A Beer And Grill Something To Eat
Let Willful Ignorance, Bring You So Much Bliss
While Freedom Goes Down In Crippling Defeat
I Can't Abide By That, Dissent Is Where I'm At
I'll Give You My Entire Ass To Kiss
Verse 4
Surround Yourself With People Showing Love
They're Out There Still, Fighting The Good Fight
Find Good In What You Can, But Stand Up To The Man
Head Held High, Cause What You're Doing's Right
Not Everything Is Lost, But There's Gonna Be A Hell Of A Cost
Before We Can Be Proud Of Our Nation Again
Verse 5
I Was Taught Be Kind To One Another
Help Lift A Person Up When Life's Got'em Down
But Politicians Sit, And Go Along With It
Hurting Women, The Queer, And The Brown
So Get Out Your Pen, Write The Congress Women And Men
And Tell Them That You're Tired Of All This Shit
Verse 6
It's Our Two-Hundred-Fiftieth Birthday
Wish I Could Say I'm Proud Of What We've Become
But When I Look Around, And See All These Clowns
Fucking It Up, It Makes Me Come Undone
How Did We End Up Here? It Brings A Man To Tears.
Maybe We Should Tear The Whole Thing Down
How Did We End Up Here? It Brings A Man To Tears.
Maybe We Should Tear The Whole Thing Down
