Not Proud of the USA - The Mice

Not Proud of the USA Lyrics

Dad, you say you're proud of the USA
You're so proud of the USA
Well it fools you in many ways
Dad, the blood of the indian tribes
Was a spilled so we could have such vibes
While we wave flags above their graves
Dad, I'm not proud of the USA
I'm not proud of the USA
I'm not proud of the USA
Man, look at Rome and Babylon
Even Egypt sat beneath the Sun
Now it looks like its days are done
And yes, God was on their side, too
Just as you say he is to you

And leagues of Americans too
Dad, I'm not proud of the USA
I'm not proud of the USA
I'm not proud of the USA
When I was a boy I was taught to believe
America was all that was
And just because
And that red, white and blue
Could justify everything you do
As long as you had pride
Deep down inside
But there's a world out there
There's a world out there
There's a world out there
There's a world out there
We've got to care
We can't raise the flag up everywhere
Dad, I'm not proud of the USA
I'm not proud of the USA
I'm not proud of the USA
Man, you see I ain't got no time to stay
My mama heard my words and then she ran away
She called the FBI and CIA
Cause Dad, I'm not proud of the USA
I'm not proud of the USA
I'm not proud of the USA
Not ... proud of the USA
Not ... proud of the USA
Not ... proud of the USA
Not ... proud of the USA
