Great American Progress

GET REVENGE
AGAINST THE LIES
FIND THE TRUTH
OPEN YOUR EYES
Their textbooks mask the truth
History lies, make you a fool
Columbus came, see Natives killed
A holiday, for the blood that spilled
Ignorance and oppression
Blacks in fields from dusk till dawn
Watchful eyes and white mans whip
Great American progress
GET REVENGE
AGAINST THE LIES
FIND THE TRUTH
OPEN YOUR EYES
The Chinese, forced to obey
Submission, abandon ways
The Irish came, considered bums
Fend for themselves, crammed into slums
Supposed land of the free
American family tree
Supposed land of the free
Lady liberty lied to me
GET REVENGE
AGAINST THE LIES
FIND THE TRUTH
OPEN YOUR EYES
The Japanese, born in this land
In '45, concentration camps
New immigrants, they have no chance
Border closed, TAKE A STAND
Supposed land of the free
Lady liberty lied to me
Supposed land of the free
STUPID BITCH LIED TO ME!
