lyrics

Only America

You can’t believe their audacity

coming at you with the full weight of their stupidity

and there ain’t no stopping that fucking train because what they think is just too ingrained

Too far gone beyond reach
depth of their “faith and love” beseech
an end to a future
a war against culture
an extinction event that’s past the breech

And there ain’t no telling where next they’re going to show
and there ain’t no limits to the depths they’ll go

And the extent of their grievance make up for lack of achievements
but they got one thing up their sleeve and that’s violence

They got one trick up their sleeve
they got one trick up their sleeve
and that’s violence

the same as it always
was

Only America!
Only America!

somewhere out in flyover hell there’s a sleeper cell And you know full well
they’ll bring the full weight of their certainty in a bloody spree to you and me
Every other week it seems to me
And they’ll think they’re going
out in a blaze of
glory

And the headline always tells the same story...

Only America!
Only America!

So what’s it gonna be?
Civil war and anarchy?
What’s the endgame to this dumpster fire?
Half these clowns are Immune to satire
The rest will die of coronavirus
Clutching their MyPillow as the world moves on
Without them
They’ll be clutching their MyPillow as the
world moves on without them
Only America!
