    An American Song


    America! America!
    Too much destruction,
    Too much deception.
    Your plans are shrouded in secrecy.

    America! America!
    Too much deception,
    Too much destruction.
    The killing never stops.

    We live within your borders,
    But you're out of our control.
    You feed us grand illusions
    While you hide behind your lies.

    Like a headless, heartless fiend
    From a mythic tale of old,
    You're tearing out our heart
    Because it can't be sold.

    We want to heal, we want to build,
    But our hopes and dreams grow cold.
    Too many bombs, too many screams
    From torture and loss.

    Sisterhood and brotherhood,
    Sanity and peace,
    The deceivers want us fighting
    Like stupid viscous beasts.

    But we can still say NO,
    We have to take a stand.
    Hate, revenge and greed
    Leave us nowhere to go.


    America! America!
    Too much destruction,
    Too much deception,
    Your plans all shrouded in secrecy.

    America! America!
    Too much deception,
    Too much destruction,
    The killing never stops.

    If your purposes are false,
    Your war becomes a crime.
    The power of truth and justice
    Will take you down in time.

    High crimes and war crimes
    Lead to darkness and despair.
    We must have laws and courts
    That are strong and true and fair.

    We don't need fear to see the light,
    With friends and trust we'll end the fight,
    And protect our common good
    With simple decency.

    Let's make a vision filled with hope,
    With no more hidden treachery.
    A generous spirit will cure the strife,
    Our world can be a garden of life.

    A World Civilization,
    All races, all nations,
    If religions keep their promise:
    To remind us to love.


    America! America!
    No more deception.
    No more destruction.
    No more killing in our name.

    America! America!
    No more deception.
    No more destruction.
    No more killing in our name.
