The Happiest Place On Earth - Desaparecidos
I want to pledge allegiance to the country where I live I don't want to be ashamed to be American But opportunity, no it don't exist It's the opiate of the populace We need some harder shit now The truth is getting around And each public school is a halfway house Where the huddled masses sober up and up Enough? There's not enough To fatten the cows and feed all of us It's just a rationing of luck What can't be bought gets raffled off Oh God, Good God, shed greed on thee Your shining sea turned a dirty green From the industry off the shores of New Jersey I got a letter from the Army So I think that I'll enlist No, I'm not brave or proud of nothing I just want to kill something Too bad that nowadays you just point and click Swing Lo satellite, hot white chariot! In the computer's blue gare The bombs burst in the air There was a city once, now nothing's there Our freedom comes at their expense It makes sense, does it? Dollars and cents They're stretching barbed wire across the picket fence That's surrounding your housing development Just in case you lack the confidence Oh God, my God, give strength to thee These amber waves, purple majesty Are nothing but backdrops for Disney Well, look up close - it's superimposed On a blank blue screen, it's fantasy Fucking magical The dream floats like a chemical Through each snapped synapse Our television past that is beautiful no more No more
