Lyrics

Come to America

And work your whole life
we’re all just rats inside a twisted maze
where profit is time
Fill me with chemicals

And sell me a cure
we're all just little plastic piggies
that don’t know what were worth

Around this world we go
climbing up that rope
They let you die slow

you pay them what you owe

pray to Americana
life in America

Pray to Americana

Life in America
pray to Americana
life in America

pray to Americana

Life in America

come see the carnival (gather around and watch the rich eat the poor)
we’ll laugh at the poor
they all dance in desperation
watch them crawl on the floor

you stole the fruits of my own labor

I’ve got nothing left to give

Could you please give me some shelter

I’ve got nowhere to live

Around this world we go
climbing up that rope
They let you die slow

You pay them what you owe (But please pay Before you go)
