Ten minutes til' twelve o'clock

That's when the hammer drops

Sienide in the chamber

Until the humvee stops

The last man (dying man)

In a dying democracy

Past americana

From see to shining see

Lockdown, America Lockdown

America Lockdown, America

Solution in his layer

Is locked up in a cage

Sweepin' under a road

Lockdown, America Lockdown

America Lockdown, America

Lock him in a cell

Spread him of his rights

One latch a time

March above the hill

Stand above the ground

One latch at a time

Lockdown, America Lockdown

America Lockdown, America
