broken at best - made in america lyrics
there are scarier things
than goblins and ghouls
like needing insurance
shootings at schools
well, you can’t scare me
i was made in america
creepier stuff
than vampires and wolves
like global pandemics
and voting for fools
well, with all we’ve seen
f+ck halloween
it won’t be monsters
that bring us our doom
its the way we treat others
the rate we consume at
but, that don’t phase me
i was made in america
with bigger bothers
than pixies and ghosts
like an island of plastic
approaching our coast
well, you can’t blame me
i was made in america
and its thе home of the brave
its thе land of the free
though the folks we’ve enslaved
tend to disagree
slavery’s over
and everyone’s equal
so, we’ve put up prisons
in need of a sequel
’cause black folks can vote
you gotta pay ’em to work
unless you label them felons
regain the perks
of their blood, sweat, and tears
can’t just let them prevail
without slave labour
capitalism fails
there’s bigger horrors
than poltergeists
like children in cages
an army called i.c.e
well, they won’t take me
i was made in america
they’ll take your huddled masses
your tired, your poor
we’ll put em’ to work
show em’ the door
’cause, i’m above picking fruit
i was made in america
but aliens
they don’t scare me none
i’ll cut you in on a secret
you’re technically one
well, your pearly white skin
wasn’t made in america
the corporations
love your misplaced rage
they’d rather buy politicians
than pay you a wage
a small price to pay
to keep jobs in america
your flag was made in taiwan
this land was their land
but now it’s my land
i didn’t do it
it wasn’t my plan
this land was your land
but now it’s my land
i have a right to it
just how some wars panned out
this land was your land
but now it’s my land
sowed by the black hand
reaped by the white man
this land was your land
and now it’s my land
this land is mine
and its the land of the free
the home of hypocrisy
don’t like it leave
just migrate to some new country
when folks are scared
their country’s corrupt
don’t let ’em in here
we don’t give a f+ck
if you don’t look like us
and you haven’t got cash
but you need a hand up
well you better not ask
cause though we’ve got room
resources to boot
there’s guns on the border
with orders to shoot
don’t you dare say i ain’t a patriot
a word i doubt you could define
it seems to me you mistake patriot
from meaning nationalist wine
i love my countrymen enough to hope they grow
i love this land ’cause it’s my home
but what it means to love, when you love someplace deep enough
is fix the problems that you know
so, don’t you dare say i ain’t a patriot
from behind your condescending smirk
america’s what we make of it
so watch me roll up sleeves and work
devils and demons
would scare me, oh
some neighbours are meaner
and they get a vote
so, i best vote too
i was made in america
and when some fascists
try to overturn
democratic election
watch the capital burn
best speak up
to remain in america
well just because
your party won
doesn’t mean
your work is done
keep marching on
stampede through america
cause freedoms won
upon a picket line
raise up your voices
there’s not always time
each day were shaping
tomorrow’s america
