We flipped the finger to the King of England
Then stole our country from the Indians
With God on our side and guns in our hands
We took it for our own

Built a nation dedicated to liberty,
Justice, and equality
Does it look that way to you? It doesnt look that way to me
Its the sickest joke I know

Listen up, man, I'll tell you who I am
I'm just another stupid American
But you dont want to listen, you dont want to understand
Just finish up your drink and go home.

I come from the land of Ben Franklin,
Twain and Poe and Walt Whitman.
Otis Redding, Ellington,
The country that I love

But its the land of the slaves, and the Klu Klux Klan,
The Haymarket Riot, and the Great Depression
Joe McCarthy, Viet Nam
Its the sickest joke I know

Listen up, man, I'll tell you who I am
I'm just another stupid American
But you dont want to listen, you dont want to understand
Just finish up your drink and go home

I'm proud and ashamed, every 4th of July
Youve got to know the truth before you say that youve got pride
Now the cops got tanks cause the kids got guns
Shrinks pushing pills on everyone
Cancer from the ocean, cancer from the sun
Straight to Hell we go

Listen up, man, I'll tell you who I am
I'm just another stupid American
But you dont want to listen, you dont want to understand
Just finish up your drink and go home
