America, where are you now?
Don't you care about your sons and daughters?
Don't you know, we need you now?
We can't fight alone against the monster
Once the religious, the hunted and weary
Chasing the promise of freedom and hope
Came to this country to build a new vision
Far from the reaches of Kingdom and Pope
While we bullied, stole and bought our home land
We began the slaughter of the Red Man
But still, from near and far to seek America
They came by thousands to court the wild
But she just patiently smiled then bore a child
To be their spirit and guiding light
The Blue and Gray, they stomped it
They kicked it, just like a dog
And when the war was over
They stuffed it, just like a hog
And tho the past has its share of injustice
Kind was the spirit in many a way
But its protectors and friends have been sleeping
Now it's a Monster and will not obey
The cities have turned into jungles
And corruption is strang'lin' the land
The police force is watching the people
And the people just can't understand
We don't know how to mind our own business
'Cause the whole world's got to be just like us
Now we are fighting a war over there
No matter who's the winner, we can't pay the cost
'Cause it's a Monster on the loose
It's our head into the noose
And it just sits there watching
America, where are you now?
Don't you care about your sons and daughters?
Don't you know, we need you now?
We can't fight alone against the monster ....
