America II

Another angst-filled song,
Another numbness-filled bong,
Another God on the television,
Another love-filled abortion.

I pledge allegiance to the flag,
praise the Lord, condemn the fag,
I could be patriotic,
if it weren't all so idiotic.

Your typical American, teenage fuck up...

Your typical American,
teenage fuck up.
cutters, pills, and suicide,
sex, drugs, cyanide,
CNN and CoverGirl,
Swallow it until you hurl,
Football stars and beauty queens,
Computer geeks and Seventeen,
Shakespeare and trailer trash,
Anti-Sex league sash,
All this bullshit you believe,
God is as fake as Reality TV,
Purgatory and heaven,
Wal-Mart and 7-11
Welcome to the Land of the Free,
Porn-stars and MTV.

Salvation is just a phone call away,
capitalism will save the day,
Surgery isn't for the sick,
pump your body full of plastic.

Cut your wrist, black clothes on,
a regular suburban rebellion,
armed with your pseudo scars, your rich cars,
don't you know, don't you know you are
