Beautiful America Lyrics
(Yeah)
and sleep with that, in order to be cool.
And you know that I would do almost anything,
to be like that guy on TV.
I know that if I had just the right outfit
and a hairstyle that could be me.
I need to have that 'cause everybody's got one.
I think I'll start smoking, that would make me intellectual,
that's what I've always wanted to be.
I need to lift weights, that would make me more sexual,
and that would be so good for me.
all you have to do is fake it.
Own anything you want,
all you have to do is take it.
Live for today,
don't think about tomorrow,
have a good time in America-Gomorrah.
I'll drive by your house and shoot your dog, and mom, and dad.
I don't need you or the Bible or anything to tell me what is the law.
With a good enough lawyer I can do anything in Beautiful America.
Okay for me in America,
everything's free in America,
for a small fee in America.

this song doesn't really make five iron look sinful. it's clearly a satire of american society. these words are all sarcastic. fif's humor is great. awesome song.

It's not sinful to engage in social commentary. This is an insightful look into society in the US, as it's steadily declining into sin and Godlessness. Good on them for speaking truthfully.

This song directly compares America to Gomorrah, a place of evil and sin. Thus its talking a bout how bad the morals and priorities of america are becoming.

Whoa, way cool song I'd never heard before even though I've had the FIF cd's since August.

This song is so so so true. Part of the reason why I love Five Iron Frenzy is because they show us that you can say how you feel about the government without being sinful. It's awesome to be able to point out what's bringing America down, then we as Christians can work to make a difference in the politics of today. I think this is my favorite song by them.

Sorry to tell you this, but it's not the American government they're talking about, but rather American society. Which, all things considered, is a cesspool for shallow, selfish, and all around bad behavior.

The lyrics actually make Five iron look anti religious and very sinful, but I can say they wrote it from someone elses view and not their own views of life.
Who does that?
Who does that?
