Best F'ing song on the radio a couple years ago.
This is the song that Peter Jennings (ABC) wouldn't let them play live
in NYC on the first anniversery special because it 'might offend certain
groups'. Glad to have a Canadian like Jennings dictating programming here
in the US.
The Angry American
American Girls and American Guys
Weâll always stand up and salute
Weâll always recognize
When we see Old Glory Flying
Thereâs a lot of men dead
So we can sleep in peace at night
When we lay down our head
My daddy served in the army
Where he lost his right eye
But he flew a flag out in our yard
Until the day that he died
He wanted my mother, my brother, my sister and me
To grow up and live happy
In the land of the free.
Now this nation that I love
Has fallen under attack
A mighty sucker punch came flyinâ in
From somewhere in the back
Soon as we could see clearly
Through our big black eye
Man, we lit up your world
Like the 4th of July
Hey Uncle Sam
Put your name at the top of his list
And the Statue of Liberty
Started shakinâ her fist
And the eagle will fly
Man, itâs gonna be hell
When you hear Mother Freedom
Start ringinâ her bell
And it feels like the whole wide world is raining down on you
Brought to you Courtesy of the Red White and Blue
Justice will be served
And the battle will rage
This big dog will fight
When you rattle his cage
And youâll be sorry that you messed with
The U.S. of A.
`Cause we`ll put a boot in your ass
It`s the American way
Hey Uncle Sam
Put your name at the top of his list
And the Statue of Liberty
Started shakinâ her fist
And the eagle will fly
Man, itâs gonna be hell
When you hear Mother Freedom
Start ringinâ her bell
And it feels like the whole wide world is raining down on you
Brought to you Courtesy of the Red White and Blue
