Welcome to America
Welcome to America
Where we preach
about holding the powerful accountable,
but crackdown on drug dealers
long before we crackdown on Wall Street
If you sell drugs
Prepare to have the book thrown at you
If you cause our entire economy to crash
due to your own bad financial decisions
We’ll give you billions of dollars
in bailout money
Welcome to America
Where we preach democracy
even though we made bribing politicians
legal in all, but name
Where we preach democracy
Even though we created a system
in which representatives
can choose their voters
instead of having their voters chose them
(Gerrymandering anyone)
Welcome to America
Where it’s normal for us
to brag about our wealth
And demonize the poor
in the same damn speech
(Those lazy, entitled brats)
Welcome to America
Where we ignore our problems
by kicking the can so far down the road
that we run out of road
And are finally forced to face our problems
because we have no longer have a choice
(We procrastinate on a global scale!)
Welcome to America
Where the rich get richer
And the poor get poorer
Welcome to America
Where we preach human rights
while supporting 73% of the world dictators
Welcome to America
The greatest country on Earth
Stolen land of the free
And home of a significant number of patriots
who consider it patriotic
to never question
the actions of the government
(Now salute the flag
Like America’s education system taught you)
