'Merican Descendents
we flipped our f[Am]inger to the king[C] of england[G] [Am]
[F]stole our cou[C]ntry from t[G]he india[Am]ns
[Am]with god at our si[G]de and gu[F]ns in our h[Am]ands
[F]we took it for our o[E7]wn
a nation dedicated to liberty
justice and equality
doesn't look that way to you
it doesn't look that way to me
the sickest joke i know
(chorus)
[C]listen up ma[G]n, i'll te[F]ll you who i a[Am]m
just another stupid american
you don't wanna listen
you don't wanna understand
[F]so finish up your [E]drink and go [Am]home
i come from the land of ben franklin
Twain and Poe and Walt whitman
otis redding, ellington
the country that i love
but it's a land of the slaves and the ku klux klan
haymarket riot and the great depression
don't get caught in vietnam
the sickest joke i know
(chorus)
[F]i'm proud and as[E]hamed
every fourth of ju[Am]ly
[B]you got to know the truth
before y[E]ou say that you got pride
(solo)
(chorus)
Now the cops got tanks 'cause the kids got guns
shrinks pushin' pills on everyone
cancer from the ocean
cancer from the sun
straight to hell we go
(chorus 2x)
