Living In The U.S.A.

When I wake up in the morning
No one tells me what to do
Everybody wants to try to show me
Just exactly what I gotta do
I'm living in the USA
Take another breath of that toxic waste
Living in the USA
Try not to suck too much detergent
Everytime I go to the store
Read the directions what a bore
Don't think I'm gonna live too long
Just as long as I can sing this song
You won't find it, you won't find it
You're gonna try, but you just can't do it
You won't find, you won't find it
You're all gonna die in the same rat trap
You're living in the USA
Cuz you're living in the USA
Cuz you're living in the USA
Cuz you're living in the USA
Standing on mountain top seeing what there is to do
The masses of disturbed, and they're looking at me
Wondering where to lead them, but not astray
This is our band and we're here to stay...Go!
Cuz we're dying in the USA
Everybody knows it you just can't stop it
You're living in the USA
Walking down the streets there's too many punks
We're living in the USA
You just gotta take it, you can't back out man
Living in the USA
The living, we'll envy the dead
We'll be on our way
Dying in the USA
We'll be on our way
Dying in the USA
We'll be on our way
Dying in the USA
We'll be on our way
Dying in the USA
We'll be on our way
Dying in the USA
We'll be on our way
Dying in the US of A
