|
For all the wealth and all the waste, |
|
Of our rich Americans and their good taste |
|
Who elected Reagan and they were so pleased, |
|
When he mortgaged our country to the Japanese |
|
Our taxes are money that was so long ago spent, |
|
the deficit has put our government up for rent |
|
There's millions out of work and that's nothing new, |
|
No one will take notice, not people like you |
|
[Chorus] |
|
Heroes & zeros which one are you gonna be |
|
America is sinking, and you're asleep in front of your TV |
|
It's not a matter of diction, |
|
being politically correct is a contradiction |
|
Truman, JFK, Great leaders of old, |
|
Bush and Clinton, crucified on a cross of gold |
|
The American people are so tied down and bloated, |
|
Complain and complain and they never even voted |
|
When the ship is sinking, The rats wonder why, |
|
We got the best leaders money can buy |
|
[Chorus] |
|
And that's the meaning of the new world order |
|
When they send your job somewhere off border |
|
Once there were acres of factories, now its rusted metal and dirt |
|
Once there worked proud families, now they nurture only hurt |
|
You could climb the ladder make your dreams come true |
|
When the bottom rungs are gone there's no future left for you |
|
No ones got a plan and no one gives a damn, |
|
For the working man, The American |
|
[Chorus] |
