Lyrics

I was in chico, california
Talking to a foreinger
When a facist threatened me
He hoped to threaten-to harass
Cause although he could kick my ass-he knew

He could never kill what I believe

The best of the best, the best in the world - the usa!
Sinking - no drowning in a sea of excess gluttony
As the rest of the world does struggle
To keep up the pace
It seems america got it right by doing..
The rest of the world wrong!

Zero knowledge of understanding
Of u.s. governemntal actions, in the states of overseas
Mystified history, quotes spewed from corporate media waves-
Turns the public into a herd of sheep

"Equal rights". "justice". "democratic role"
"Freedom". "equality"
All just a total, "fuck you!"
Empty words in the president slurs, in every speech
While scheming behind closed doors, with the c.i.a
To undermine democracy!
To undermine autonomy!
To undermine the stability of any leftist populus regime
Making the president a terrorist!
Making the u.s.a. a terrorist!
U.s. tax dollars fund, terror, terror, terror... terror!!!

It seems america must have gotten it right!
