Now we want peace without patriot missiles
Blown to bits are civilian targets
Parade! Laugh! Rejoice! Sing!
We are the victors of...nothing
Spend more money on a war
Your people starved and turn to whores
Slaves of the chosen ones paying millions for each bomb

Country without a race
Formed from people you disgrace
White right conservative might
Killers of Kennedy with no fright
The American way!

Freedom cried the marching man
Flags ripped out of their black hands
Beaten! Slain! Tortured! Killed!
Their only mistake was being born here
Invade countries just for oil
Send your troops all down to boil
Iraq! Grenada! Nam and Chile!
Truman doctrine our own way

Country without a race
Formed from people you disgrace
White right conservative might
Killers of Kennedy with no fright
The American way!

The government here can suck my balls
Policing the world in overalls
Armed rebellion minority
Disrespected race, colored mind
Crazed loonies all walk the streets
Missing children on milk cartons
Mother selling child for crack
Mr. President check your back

Country without a race
Formed from people you disgrace
White right conservative might
Killers of Kennedy with no fright
The American way!
The American way!
The American way!
