Yeah
(Shotgun)
Peace
Eh, yeah, eh, eh, yeah, eh
Aristocrats on a mountain climb
Makin' money, losin' time
Communism is just a word
But if the government turn over
It'll be the only word that's heard
America, America
God shed His grace on Thee
America, America
Keep the children free
Little sister make minimum wage
Livin' in a one-room jungle, monkey cage
Can't get over, she's almost dead
She may not be in the black
But she happy she ain't in the red
America, America
God shed His grace on Thee
America, America
Keep the children free
Freedom, love, joy, peace
Jimmy nothing never went to school
They made him pledge allegiance
He said it wasn't cool
Nothin' made Jimmy proud
Now Jimmy live on a mushroom cloud
America, America
God shed His grace on Thee
America, America
Keep the children free
America, America
God shed His grace on Thee
America, America
Keep the children free
Freedom, love, joy, peace
Boom, boom, boom, boom
(Oh lord, oh lord)
And the bomb go
Boom, boom, boom, boom
And the bomb go
Boom
Teacher, why won't Jimmy pledge allegiance?
