Lyrics

(Get up against the wall) (You wanna mess me?) (Ready, go!) (I don't wanna see nothing but asses and all those) (I don't know why you're messin' me) (Move, man, come on) (Come on now) (I gotta gone here, I gotta gone) (Get up against the wall!) (Get up against the wall, man) (Hey, man, you're messin' all, this supposed to be America, man) (I close 'em off, I close 'em off) (Move, move) (Hang on, check this here, man) (Hey, man, be cool) (We did nothing, it's probably America) (One, two, three, four, in line) (One, two, three, four) (One, two, three, four) (One, two, three, four) (One, two, three) Well, we got trouble in the White House Poverty in the ghetto, yeah When will it end? Nobody knows! People are asking now "How can you spend another dollar on the space race With families at home starving right in front of your face?" Where is your heart, America? Thousand of jobless people walking the streets With no food or place to sleep What will become of them, yeah, America? I, I heard some people saying they had a solution "All we got to do is change the Constitution!" What about air pollution, America? Oh, America! Yeah Don't get me wrong, I still love ya In spite of all your troubles and woes In my eyes you're still the greatest of them all, ah America! Hey, oh, nah I ain't ashamed to say that I love ya There ain't another place on Earth I'd rather be, yeah, yeah, yeah Amen, hey Amen Amen Ha! We won all the battles there were to win Pray that the war stay at an end That's the people's prayer Listen to them, America! Ah America! Hey Don't get me wrong, I still love ya In spite of all your troubles and woes In my eyes you're still the greatest of them all! Ah America! Hey, oh, nah I ain't ashamed to say that I love ya There ain't another place on Earth I'd rather be Ha, America Don't get me wrong, I still love ya In spite of all your troubles and woes In my eyes you're still the greatest of them all! Ha, America
