Pain Of Salvation

Pain Of Salvation - America lyrics

rate me

You brought us the a-bomb

in so many ways

endorsed by God and The Book

so god loves a war monger?

hey Mr. Blix: forget Iraq and the time it took

‘cause I know just where to look

"could we have a vote please?"

...

they came with a song - America

they wouldn’t stay long - America

we are America

god bless America

god bless America and Capitol Hill

‘cause no one else will

so now you are scared

the arabs will kill for their god

like you do for yours?

protect your obesity with your life man

hey - Angry God or Diet Coke?

who cares it’s all a joke

"heil homo pecuniae"

...

saving us yet another time

earning a buck on every dime

sick of America

sick of America

sick of America and Capitol Hill

moving in for the next kill

did you say "I love you"?

a simpler democracy

where every flaw and failure is called a “Right”

a new form of freedom

based on your income

your color, creed

and your choice of gun

but it provides great fun

"Dr. Phil or Operah?"

"Letterman or Leno?"

"Idol or Big Brother?"

[we’ll be back after this short break]

it could have been good America

it could have been great America

land of the brave and free

welcoming you and me

but this Brave New World is not as new anymore

each day a new store

each year a new war

while chosen whites rule the poor

in America

oh America

don’t you walk out on me

just wait a second now

please hear me out

oh

I’ll do my best to love you

oh yes I will

I know you’re out there

c'mon

raise your voices

don’t let them ruin your reputation

don’t let them wreck your constitution

not out of fear

not out of greed

but you had a good run America

your day in the sun America

hello British Empire

hello Roman Empire

hello Soviet

there is a new kid in town

joining the gone down

finding what you found

treading your worn

worn down ground

rise to your former glory

be brave and warm

oh America

if I say I love you

if I say I love you

if I say I love you

dare you love me too?
