American politicians have scarred our good name
There are those too scared to see the terror threat hyperbole
We're not all blood thirsty, ignorant, flag waving government sycophants
See through the lies and corporate ties
We sing and we want our change
And ignoring the log in our eyes
Sending thousands off to die
Watch them lose their ass on page 23
Then they save their face on your TV
Got to be the good American
Got to be the good American
Questioning what they are selling me
Questioning what they are selling me
Hell bent on nation building
Governments run amuck
In the name homeland security
It's the world wide manifest destiny
International bully with a disregard for sovereignty
I see health care shutting down
But Baghdad needs a mall downtown
How can we, how can we, how can we?
How can we find the speck in our brother's eye
When we are the ones going blind?
Got to be the good American
Got to be the good American
Questioning what they are selling me
Questioning what they are selling me
Got to be the good American
Got to be the good American
Questioning what they have done to me
What they have done to me
How can we save anybody else when we can't save ourselves?
How can we change anybody else when we failed to change ourselves?
How can we give away what we don't already have anyway?
Got to be the good American
I don't want to be no president
Got to be the good American
I don't want to be no patriot.
We can't waste
We can't waste our feelings on
If they will hate or love us
We will overcome
