*(Some Restrictions Apply)

America:
Land of the Free*
*(some restrictions apply)
Where obeisance pays
And Jesus saves
If you have the proper loyalty card

Equality for all
(except the ones we don't like)
Celebrating individuality
By giving everyone the same
Standardized tests
And preaching uniformity

Television a God
His cold gaze, we trust
All-seeing eyes
And well-informed lies
Teaching us who, where
What to despise
And blindly, we follow

Where credit cards
And broken hearts
Are easy to come by
But health and happiness
Are commodities
And debt is forever

Divided we stand
Together we fall
Where do we turn?
God help us all
