Lyrics
Excuse me buddy, but-
Excuse me lady, but-
You foolin, ain’tcha?
Where can I be?
This ain’t America, is it?
Oh Lord, where can I be?
This ain’t America, is it?
Nah, this ain’t America
You can’t fool me
This here’s the home of the sheriff
Not the land of the free
In America, folks don’t run through the streets
Blood streamin' from where they’ve been beaten
In the park for the people
And the cop in the good ol' U.S.A
Don’t think they some kinda gods either
Nah, this ain’t America
You can’t fool me
If you don’t spit the right image
They just pull out their DDT
If they just don’t like the way you look
They just law and order and trick
Just trip and name and frame and blame
Just legislate and club away
And just laugh louder and louder
Nah, this ain’t America
You can’t fool me
Nah, this ain’t America
You can’t fool me
Love (love, that’s America)
Open arms for every creature
Love (love, that’s America)
Open arms for every man
Love (love, that’s America)
Joy and peace and harmony
Love (love, that’s America)
Children with laughing eyes
Love (love, that’s America)
Yes Lord, that’s America
Love (love, that’s America)
The old eagle soarin'
Love (love, that’s America)
The old eagle wearin' a grin
Love (love, that’s America)
The old eagle soarin'
Nah, this ain’t America
Nah, you can’t fool me
(God bless America)
Oh, this here’s the land of the sniper
Not the home of the brave
Oh say can’t you smell that you too smug to see?
Greed done pulled the plug
Your democracy is defrostin'
Somethings going rotten
Smells like justice and liberty
Nah, this ain’t America
You can’t fool me
(You can’t fool me)
Excuse me, but seriously
Which way to the good ol' U.S.A.
This ain’t nothing like the place I wanna be
Not as far as I can see
I don’t care what you say
Hey, why you pointing that this way?
This sure ain’t America, is it?
Nah, this ain’t America
You can’t fool me
Nah, this ain’t America
You can’t fool me
