lyrics

so you were born in a shithole country
well, here that just means that your life’s worth less
don’t matter how far you came, or the reasons, or your name
or the fact that you just want some fucking rest

there’s lots of folks that think your pain is funny
and the don’t care when brown bodies turn up dead
they’ll put your kids in cages ‘cause they think you’ll steal their wages
and somehow, you’re still the one sick in the head

i don’t think this country ever was great
a bunch of racist white dudes didn’t make it that way
but hey, let’s kill the poor, and let’s start another war
cause all that progress that we made was a mistake, right?
okay

women still belong in the kitchen
or murdered by their husbands on the news
but let’s give them all the blame
hey, and rape jokes are okay, right?
whatever it takes to get your stupid views

there won’t be any weddings you don’t agree with
that means gays and maybe interracial too
who the hell knows, right?
it’ll all be fine in your fascist paradise
deport anyone who don’t agree with you

i don’t think this country ever was great
a bunch of racist white dudes didn’t make it that way
but hey, let’s kill the poor, and let’s start another war
cause all that progress that we made was a mistake, right?
okay
