Lyrics
I’m from the greatest country Even though half of the nation’s hungry Even so half of the nation’s lovely and lucky and thus we bathe in luxury We praise God for coins and green notes We got dogs adorned in mink coats We got stars that tour the green globe and then charge the poor some people Land of the free, home of the brave and where the teachers won’t get a raise As the elite get loans from the banks Thanks that achieve from the owning of slaves Can’t make amends or sense of his ways Ingenuine, an engine of hate Send in the men, defending our fate And this is the place where the infants are raised to say We don’t need no whip As we all leave for our ego trip And we don’t need no ship As we all leave for our ego trip When the machine gon’ lift Off of the ground for our ego trip? And yes, we gon’ trip As we leave for our ego trip Now go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey), get your passports out Go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey), get your passports out Go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey) Huh, I’m from the greatest country Even though half of the nation’s lunching Even go grab other nations’ money For funding our excess life of gluttony So thank God for stocks and credit We make cars some kind of fetish Though the exhaust [?] the planets Life forth, we buy more harsh mechanics Land of the free, home of the brave Morbidly obese, we’ve grown overweight More that we go feast, we throw more away We on an ego trip, put more on the tray Overseas get deserts, we get dessert Nix everybody else on our tee shirt If everybody else hates, then eat dirt So what? It’s me first because We don’t need no whip As we all leave for our ego trip And we don’t need no ship As we all leave for our ego trip When the machine gon’ lift Off of the ground for our ego trip? And yes, we gon’ trip As we leave for our ego trip Now go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey), get your passports out Go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey), get your passports out Go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey) Go (hey) I’m from the greatest country Even though half of the nation’s unseen We will show cats that Vegas stuff, please But what about the ghetto and these messed up streets? But thank God for [?] and food stamps We got jobs that’s frickin’ boot camps And this boss is p*ssed that you dragged your feet to work Upset? Well, too bad Land of the free, home of the brave We forget about our own in the States Please consider how the homelessness rate in the country is growing and don’t sit and wait for that man with the gun to come through Stuns you, ha, you thought he was untrue Once you robbed, tell your peoples what’s true You was on a ego trip, weren’t you? I know You don’t need no whip As you all go on your ego trip And you don’t need no ship As you all go on your ego trip Soon the machine gon’ lift Off the ground for your ego trip Why do people trip on this ego trip?
