lyrics

America, uh huh
Living in America, uh huh
America, uh huh
Living in America

Corporate power, corporate interest
Unaccountable, indifferent
To the public in a crisis
It's a class war, but one-sided
Look at Pfizer's profiting a virus
Vaccine patents, millions dying
Poorer countries get the slightest
Here in America it's one-sided

America, uh huh
Living in America, uh huh
America, uh huh
Living in America

Offshore havens, tax evasions
Private profits, public payments
Inculcated with mass precision
Watch your sports, don't pay attention
While the top-tier captains of industry
Continue to be engorged with impunity
Two hands restricting the spigot
Vassal states, no choice, bootlick it

America, uh huh
Living in America, uh huh
America, uh huh
Living in America

Look at Biden shaking hands with OPEC
Paying out lip service with climate rhetoric
Abrogated with mass indifference
All these states are vassals to the super-rich
Where, oh where, oh where goes the money?
Military science and hi-tech industry
Never to the public, the public is the enemy
Never to the public, we are the threat of democracy

America, uh huh
Living in America, uh huh
America, uh huh
Living in America
America, uh huh
Living in America, uh huh
America, uh huh
Living in America
