The Used - A Song to Stifle Imperial Progression lyrics
[The Used - A Song to Stifle Imperial Progression lyrics]
A burning bush, the Bay of Pigs, the CIA
I guess if daddy helped the Nazis, it’s okay
Booked an expensive flight with
Buildings in the way
A different burning bush
Exact same things to say
God bless the USA god bless the USA
God bless the USA
We're saying no way, no way USA
By declaring war on terror you
Declare war on yourself
We're saying no way, no way USA
The war on drugs and poverty are
Only tools for gaining wealth
We're saying no way, no way USA
Try mixing blood and oil in the Middle East
Every president will "spread democracy"
They say democracy, they really mean disease
Not satisfied till everyone is on their knees
God bless the USA god bless the USA
God bless the USA
We're saying no way, no way USA
By declaring war on terror you
Declare war on yourself
We're saying no way, no way USA
The war on drugs and poverty are
Only tools for gaining wealth
We're saying no way, no way USA
You occupy the people’s land and think
We don't know what it's for
We're saying no way, no way USA
Drill a hole and fuck the ground and
Spend the cash and print some more
We're saying no way, no way USA
(So God bless the USA for what
It's worth and let it be
Because there is no God
There is no USA, from what I see)
So God bless the USA for what
It's worth and let it be
Because there is no God
There is no USA, from what I see
So God bless the USA for what
It's worth and let it go
It's just another lie we cannot buy
Ran out of money long ago
By declaring war on terror you
Declare war on yourself
We're saying no way, no way USA
The war on drugs and poverty are
Only tools for gaining wealth
We're saying no way, no way USA
You occupy the people’s land and think
We don't know what it's for
We're saying no way, no way USA
Drill a hole and fuck the ground and
Spend the cash and print some more
We're saying no way, no way USA
"In the councils of government, we must guard
Against the acquisition of
Unwarranted influence, whether sought or
Unsought, by the military-industrial complex
The potential for the disastrous rise of
Misplaced power exists
And will persist we must never
Let the weight of
This combination endanger our liberties
Or democratic processes"
I guess if daddy helped the Nazis, it’s okay
Booked an expensive flight with
Buildings in the way
A different burning bush
Exact same things to say
God bless the USA god bless the USA
God bless the USA
We're saying no way, no way USA
By declaring war on terror you
Declare war on yourself
We're saying no way, no way USA
The war on drugs and poverty are
Only tools for gaining wealth
We're saying no way, no way USA
Try mixing blood and oil in the Middle East
Every president will "spread democracy"
They say democracy, they really mean disease
Not satisfied till everyone is on their knees
God bless the USA god bless the USA
God bless the USA
We're saying no way, no way USA
By declaring war on terror you
Declare war on yourself
We're saying no way, no way USA
The war on drugs and poverty are
Only tools for gaining wealth
We're saying no way, no way USA
