The name of this song is "Uncle Sam Goddamn" |
|
It's a show tune, but the show ain't been written for it yet |
|
We gonna see if Tony Jerome and the band can maybe work this shit out for me |
|
Straighten me out right quick |
|
I like it so far, man |
|
Yeah |
|
Come on, let's go |
|
Welcome to the United Snakes |
|
Land of the Thief, Home of the Slave |
|
Grand imperial guard |
|
where the dollar is sacred and proud |
|
Let's do this shit for real, come on now |
|
Smoke and mirrors, stripes and stars |
|
Stoning for the cross in the name of God |
|
Bloodshed, genocide, rape and fraud |
|
Writ into the pages of the law, good lord |
|
The cold continent latchkey child |
|
Ran away one day and started acting foul |
|
King of where the wild things are, daddy's proud |
|
Cause the Roman Empire done passed it down |
|
Imported and tortured a workforce |
|
and never healed the wounds or shook the curse off |
|
Now the grown up Goliath nation |
|
holding open auditions for the part of David, can you feel it? |
|
Nothing can save you, you question the reign |
|
You get rushed in and chained up |
|
Fists raised but I must be insane |
|
'cause I can't figure a single goddamn way to change it |
|
But welcome to the United Snakes |
|
Land of the Thief, Home of the Slave |
|
The grand imperial guard |
|
where the dollar is sacred and power is god |
|
Welcome to the United Snakes |
|
Land of the Thief, Home of the Slave |
|
The grand imperial guard |
|
where the dollar is sacred and power is god |
|
All must bow to the fat and lazy |
|
The fuck you obey me and why do they hate me, who me |
|
Only two generations away from the |
|
world's most despicable slavery trade |
|
Pioneered so many ways to degrade a human being |
|
That it can't be changed to this day |
|
Legacy so ingrained in the way that we think |
|
We no longer need chains to be slaves |
|
Lord, it's a shameful display |
|
The overseers even got raped along the way |
|
Cause the children can't escape from the pain |
|
And they born with the poisonous hatred in their veins |
|
Try and separate a man from his soul |
|
You only strengthen him and lose your own |
|
But shoot that fucker if he walk near the throne |
|
Remind him that this is my home (now I'm gone) |
|

|
Hold up, gimme one right here, hold up |
|
You don't give money to the bums |
|
On the corner with a sign, bleeding from their gums |
|
Talking about you don't support a crackhead |
|
What you think happens to the money from your taxes? |
|
Shit, the government's an addict |
|
With a billion dollar a week kill-brown-people habit |
|
And even if you ain't on the front line |
|
When massa yell crunch time, you right back at it |
|
You ain't look at how you hustling backwards |
|
At the end of the year add up what they subtracted |
|
Three out of twelve months your salary |
|
Paid for that madness, man that's sadness |
|
What's left? Get a big assed plasma |
|
To see where they made Dan Rather point the damn camera |
|
Only approved questions get answered |
|
Now stand your ass up for that national anthem |
|
