History Lesson #1

We built this country on "democracy"

We stole this land through hypocricy

We found ourselves some liberation

And we hid our guilt on the reservation

What we want we must possess

It's time for us to take your address

You cannot stop our progress

Send your complaints to Congress

We declared all men's equality

While the blacks still lived in slavery

They fought in wars for our cause

But still couldn't vote by our laws

We change the rule when we decide

Our moral values are cast aside

Your oppression is justified

Cause we're the ones who preside

Now it's 1994

Nothing's changed much from before

We break promises left and right

What we can't buy, we take by might

Some would say we victimize

But we just try to capitalize

Your only hope we'll monopolize

So we can build our enterprise

It's all in your books

All you need to do is take a look

If you don't know what

Our country's done
