作词 : Connelly, Lilker ... Welcome to the age of an American empire Not a day will pass when bombs don't seem to fly Scream about the rights of victims and their pain But your actions are where the causes lay Don't like what we have done We're not the only ones Before you raise you rage Look closely at your past: Algeria and Vietnam Africa the Middle East English ships and the slave trade Now, tell me who's the beast European leaders wringing their own hands Set aside as powers in the Holy Land To Europe, we are lacking in sophistication Are we another little, shitty country? Don't like what we have done We're not the only ones Before you raise you rage Look closely at your past: Southeast Asia and India Aztec, Mayan, and Incan worlds Chinese hooked on opium Sacrificed for the old-world ways Belief in their empire covers them in cloth Forget their powers and morals, for the part History shows us this has always been our harm When we put up with this and the UN in charge Don't like what we have done We're not the only ones Before you raise you rage Look closely at your past: America, your enemy To heal, your leaders tell But for your own demands You need our power, as well
